THANKS SO MUCH FOR WATCHING!
Nice to hear someone that explains the equivalent factor and depth of field difference correctly!
you clarified the misconception really well, its kinda annoying when reviewers tell you smaller sensor captures less light when their sensor pixel size is just same size as full frame... its only the field of view that is doubled.... MFT aperture size is not doubled to match the light capture of 35mm but to match depth of field of same focal length.. basically a MFT f1.4 will let in the same light as any other format F1.4 wether it is a tiny sensor or full frame sensor.
Just ordered mine ... With the OM-1 MK2 it will be a glorious wildlife combo.
Wow, I don't shoot olympus but what a lens. Thanks for dispelling the sensor/fstop myth UA-cam.
Olympus also makes a 12-100mm f/4... That's 24-200mm in full frame terms... At f/4 constant and it's razer sharp.
The SFx guy does nature shots! Really like the pictures and feel you gave a good demonstration of the capabilities of this lens. Appreciate it.
This lens really shines on m4/3. Like no competition.
I wonder how it looks and feels when you attach it to E-M10 body 😬
You have probably discovered by now that those 4 black do not give you 4 different options to set: you can only assign one function - the four black buttons provide 4 ways to turn their function on. It is to make it ergonomically easy to to no matter the size of your hands, or orientation you are holding it, or R or L handed. 😊
Nice to see olympus making new camera gear 👏🏻
Really looks like it is a versatile lens. been a long time coming
Nice one...so essentially....with my mc20 teleconverter on I can go all the way to 600mm - 2000mm.....maybe someone can do a review with the teleconverter attached.
Still f4.5 during 1.25x? I thought it will become f5.6 when engaged the 1.25x tele converter?
You always lose light and the f number goes up when using a teleconverter.
Very cool! That tele-converter switch is pretty sweet.
Great shots and beautiful camera. I'll have to work for 6 months to afford one
Great lens. I ordered mine a couple of weeks ago but won't be receiving it until the end of the year. About the 4 buttons around the lens. It was my understanding that all 4 of them do the same thing when programed. Can you clarify?
I own the lens and you are right. One function but four buttons to make it easy to reach one.
What an awesome lens. Scared to ask, how much?
Nevermind, just seen the price. Not cheap but seems like a no brainer if you're into pro sports photography and make money of it. Look great 👍
The no brainer for professionals is to not touch MFT with a ten foot pole, because it's ridiculously overpriced. This lens packs the same performance as a 300-800 f/9 on full frame. It's the opposite of cost efficient.
@@youknowwho9247 Cool. Go buy a 300-900 lens oh wait-
@@youknowwho9247 not only is your comment inaccurate but is debunked in this same video!
@@youknowwho9247 tell that to Daniel J Cox. Very very well published wildlife photographer. Pro. But he uses more systems like many pros.
That looks like a very compact (for what it is) birding kit. I've been at Prospect Park, nice park, lot's of walking.
you get the light gathering of f4.5 but the look of f9 relative to full frame.
Seth, whenever you can, please let us know how good the autofocus is for birds in flight and other fast moving animals (e.g. running dogs). Thanks.
Great video
Oh WOW....I can only dream....
Lavish frame
Not gonna lie, that lens looks incredible. Shame Olympus left the market. If they had brought this out a couple of years ago, the story may have been much different.
Good video Seth but you'll have to come out with me so we can get you shooting more than mallards and turtles. ;-)
Can I come too.
Thank you so much for noting that f-stops are f-stops are f-stops whether you are on m43, APSC or FF. It's crazy to me that this is still misunderstood.
Yes, but with a m43 sensor you only capture 25% of the light, compared to “full frame”. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
I actually have a question on how to hand hold. I have the 100-400, which doesn't tie the lens IS and body IS together (no Sync IS), and I felt "unstable" shooting the egrets at Pelham Bay Park
Adorama, could we have episodes on wildlife photography as well from pro's of respective fields
Ducks in the water are slow. How about some flying birds? I wonder if the image quality is still good when the ISO reaches 3200 or 6400.
@BloddySk Thanks for your information. I understand the aperture is 1/3 bigger. And yes, ISO 6400 creates tons of noise on my Sony A7R4/A7R3 already, I have many reasons to believe for the 4/3 sensor, even at ISO 3200, the noise will be a lot. That's why I am curious how this lens work with the EM1 III body to shoot flying birds. Apart from that, I think EM1 III would make a great wildlife body paring this 150-400 Pro lens, not to mentions there is a built-in *1.25 teleconverter. I wish Canon or Sony would create some lens like this. Olympus lenses are so beautiful and handy to use.
Interesting lens.
forgot to mention the price tag? I can buy an A7RIV+200-600 and about $2,000 still in my pocket...
Compare pro lens with pro lens. There is a mft non pro 100-300 mm (200-600 FF equiv) Panasonic for 500-600 $. But you can buy the 600 mm Sony with 13000 $. :)))) Or 100-400 f4.5-5.6 for 3000$. With this pro olympus you can reach 2000mm. And is more compact.
I wouldn't do that. I own that combo, plus a 24-105 and a 85 1.4 and despite everything you'll read online about the benefits of it and how much you can crop, etc, it is the most difficult gear combo to work with I have ever used. The ibis in Sony is pretty much useless, and the A7RIV ISO performance is not great above 3600. That means you are tripod bound if you want sharp photos. To each their own obviously and the sony is amazing for many other applications, including wildlife (which is what I mainly do) but you need fast enough shutter speeds and good light. Also, unless you are a highly paid professional or have a day job that pays extremely well, as of today, Sony is a dead end for the amateur/prosumer. Either you settle for the likes of a 200-600 for 1600£ or you sell your kidney to buy a 400 2.8 or 600 f4, there is no in between like Canon and Nikon have nor a second hand market big enough. I like my Sony, but I recognise that I have fallen victim of the hype and a marketing/influencer budget that is likely to be second to none. Well done for Sony since they are selling their cameras like cakes, but as a consumer, I'd be wary of the praises from people that are making thousands of dollars just by recommending Sony gear. Just look at well stablished wildlife professionals and they very rarely talk gear or brands, they talk photography.
Does it have same disadvantage as Canon 200-400mm lens when using TC ie requirement of shutting down camera in order to either engage or disengage TC?
You don't have to shut the Camera on the Canon 200-400. I owned that lens and you can use the TC just flipping it in and out however you like, no problem. An amazing lens but really heavy...
Did you use it with the x2 tc? How did it perform?
Do some testing for sharpness bohkeh chromatic aberration sharpness...etcera..this is hardly a review.
Greetings, mr. Miranda.
T.y. for this video. I am looking forward to this beast.
Only thing missing, is the thing i await an aswear to - does the built in-magnifyier affect the aperture, or does it remain an f.4.5?
Best o' regards
Klaus Lehrmann
Denmark
It was 500/5.6 with tc 1.25x on.
@@konstantinaksenov4850 Ok. T.y for replying. I did meanwhile learn elsewhere, though. T.y. anyway :).
good video but I have seen several of those and I‘m getting more and more the impression that the lens is only made for bird fotography ....... ?
While yes the aperture is f4.5 the resulting image is similar to that of an f9 lens on full frame in BOTH depth of field and noise. So in practical terms it is an f9 lens but on paper it is f4.5.
well that's not that good huh?
It's still 4.5 in terms of light gathering... That's the point. Depth of field matters significantly less in wildlife photography and noise is easily fixed in programs like Topaz.
Too many variables. M43 outperforms many older full frame sensors and also can outperform Canon R6 sensor on highlight retention. Its not so clear cut as saying yeah double it.
Not at all how aperture works. "Crop factor" cannot be applied to all aspects of aperture - only to depth of field.
Take two (well-designed) lenses with the same f-stop, and the _intensity of light_ on the sensor will be the same. No matter the focal length, or the size of the sensor.
This is an F4.5 lens. Not "on paper", but in practical terms too.
It would be correct to say that a micro four thirds sensor is smaller, so the _total light_ on the sensor is lower, and therefore will perform worse at a given ISO. That's a property of the sensor, not of the lens.
An F9 full-frame lens will perform _very, very differently_ (largely worse), even on a flagship body, compared to this lens.
I've not yet seen any shots that show detail on subjects that are more than about 50' away.
Ducks and turtles are nice but not much of a challenge for most lens/bodies/photographers.
So my Nikon 200-500 5.6 is actually a 400-1000 5.6 in micro 43rds , Got it.
Except that you would be only using a very small portion of that lens so you sharpness would suffer greatly.
With DOF of an f11 lens^^
Of course not. Your 200-500 5.6 stays a 200-500 5.6 on a m43. But the image you get is the equivalent of a 400-1000 f 11 full frame. The m43 sensor only captures 25% of the light compared to full frame!
Right, the crop factor doesn’t affect the f-ratio, but it does affects the effect of f-ratio on the image, just as it doesn’t change the focal length but does change the effect of focal length on the image. Exact same thing.
It’s a 150-400mm f/4.5 lens which, when used on a Micro Four Thirds camera, produces _images_ that are equivalent to the images that a 300-800mm f/9 lens would produce on a 35mm camera at 4× the ISO setting. Of course the lens doesn’t physically become f/9 just because of the sensor behind it - but it also doesn’t become 300-800mm.
In many cases when working with telephoto lenses there is too much “shallow depth of field”. It’s actually a strength of crop sensors to have a deeper depth of field with regards to these type of lenses.
Iso doesn't scale linearly as you suggest
@@billyblue689 It’s not a “strength” since you can stop down a lens with equivalent focal length on a larger sensor and get similar results.
It’s only a strength if you care about the numbers in your EXIF data for some reason.
Ah, but I just remembered something: it seems that some people think that smaller sensors somehow introduce more noise on their own and that the claims of equivalence would be _on top_ of that or something like that. That is *not* the case: equivalence is the _explanation_ for the difference in noise that everyone can see.
Most of the noise in digital images is in the light itself, before the minute amount of electronic noise from the camera is added. (So it kind of irks me when people indiscriminately call it “sensor noise” - if you see it in a bright sky, for example, the noise you are seeing most likely does not come from the sensor itself.)
The reason why 35mm images at a given f-ratio / shutter speed (/ ISO number) are less noisy than MFT images with the same settings is that they are made from more light (same intensity per area, but larger area). Using an equivalent f-ratio on the 35mm camera instead of an identical one equalizes that amount of light, and so the noise in the final image becomes similar, even if that amount of light is spread onto a larger area which is reflected in the higher ISO number.
That 35mm cameras are somehow magically two stops “cleaner” than MFT, and that it also just so happens that they must stop down two stops to achieve the same DOF as MFT, is not a coincidence.
But it works both ways indeed: at a given shutter speed, if you actually want higher quality on the larger format, you need to sacrifice some DOF. But if you don’t do that, it just means that you are not taking advantage of the larger sensor, not that you are at a disadvantage (except potentially in cost, size or weight).
I hope this clears things up.
Awesome explanation... dude..👍
You didn’t try on the people across the bridge.
they great for the zoo until you get to the giraffes and its like oh crap i need to back the heck up.......alot!!
This is equivalent to a 300-800 f9 lens on a ff camera in terms of angle of view and amount of background blur.
800 @ F9 (FF equivalent) is pretty good actually even compared to FF lens.
Afraid to talk about the price?
I think it is $7500 USD
Micro 4/3 is so misleading. This is more like 300-800 f9.
No, from a light-gathering perspective it is still F4.5. The DOF is equivalent to F9.
Sigh ....
It's a 300-800 f4.5 with the added benefit of better dof wide open - this makes a big diifeerence with bird photography - with something like the Canon 600 f4 you often need to stop down to get suficient dof with m43 you often don't need to which also means you can maintain better shutter speeds
@@shepherdsg No, it's not. It's equivalent to f/9 on full frame in every way as photographic results go.
Lol 7500 wowzers
DOF does not change with different sensor sizes. Your comment is out of context.
Depth of field is a function of the focal length and aperture. If you want to take two shots on different-sized sensors _with the same field of view_ then you will need a longer focal length on the larger sensor, which results in a shallower depth of field.
The reason people typically link this to sensor size is that focal lengths will often be considered in "full frame equivalent" terms, because it's more useful to compare the actual field of view that will be produced by the lens and sensor together. If you compare, say, 25mm on MFT to 50mm on full frame, the field of view is equivalent (ignoring the change in aspect ratio), but the full frame system will have a shallower DOF - because it's using a lens with twice the focal length.
Wow, 6.5 grand for a M4/3 lens. That's a hard pass.
This lens is quite overpriced that you can buy 3 Sony 200-600 G with 1.4x TC.
