it should be fine, if you are not sure, go to a store and try it out, but it should work

the Olympus is definitely better then the SLR Magic, you just have to use a step down ring to fit the ND filter works on both, have fun shooting, gordon!

Hello Mike

i tried to send you an email to your adress verizon.net …reject … out of order ?

Hello Mike from France

first test made today about slr magic 12mm noktor 1.6

did you try it ?

i have a question for these two lenses ….noktor 12 mm 1.6 and olympus 12mm 2

price different….olympus auto focus ok, but more expensive because better than noktor ?

what is the sharper ?

i use for the moment one GH2 and 1442 zoom, panasonic is too long to put on the market one 1235 zoom with constant aperture

since 3 months i make many clips in my city…and i use 90% of time the wide 14 ( equ 28mm )

about noktor and olympus …is it possible for each of theses lenses …to put a rubber lens shade with a fader nd ?

what circle of fader nd for olympus 46 mm ?

lends shade in the box of olympus 12mm ? possible to put with it a nd fader ?

have a good time Mike

in waiting your answers …i wish you many pretty pictures

it is a great little cam, unfortunately no, tried hooking up my Cineroid (works great with my GH2 and 5D2 etc) but it doesn’t work on the EP3

EP3 highest quality jpegs and natural settings, however tweaked contrast/curves/saturation in Photoshop.

Great news Mike. Thinking about adding this lovely toy (the EP3) to my m43 ‘collection’… I’m the owner of 2 GH2s…
May I ask you a question, does the hdmi out provides live video to an external monitor, like it does on the GH2??
Thx for all the info!

Thanks for the nice video. Can you tell me what settings did you use on your EP3 for the sample images posted above – Natural/Vivid/i-Enhance, sharpness/contrast/saturation settings etc?

Thanks
