Took my EM10 with kit lens, 12-40mm, 15mm and 45mm to the Singapore Zoo today. First proper shots after getting the EM10. For some of the shots in doors, with incandescent lighting, I had to drop to 45mm F1.8, 1/40 and ISO 3200. Noise filter was off. Surprisingly the noise looks pretty ok, I would say on par with the Fuji XE2 with -2 NR. Very pleased instead with the ISO performance. With the XE2 and X100s I keep to maximum of ISO3200 due to the plastic face issue with ISO 6400. So now I find the EM10 ISO3200 on par with XE2, I'm pretty pleased. While I tried all lens, all looked pretty good to me, including the kit lens. But the primes and 12-40mm were useful in lower light. So I might use the kit lens for day shots with plenty of light and the primes and 12-40mm at night or indoors. I shot both RAW and L JPEG, but I found the JPEG so good, I did not bother with processing the RAW.
Glad to hear this. the 12-40/2.8 lens alone was what drew quite a few friends into MFT given it's performance vs price and weight ratio.
And it's not everyone one gets a 45/1.8 portrait lens for free especially for what it can deliver.
Shooting Fujifilm too, i will confess Fuji out of camera skin tones are still slightly better than MFT while MFT triumphs in AF accuracy and speed. I guess I'm very lucky in that I kinda know what I want exactly in my cameras and that's why for me these 2 systems stay with me.
