raw versus jpeg

A few days ago I went with my OM-D to the nature. I wanted to see how the lightmetering does the job and the dfirence between in camera processing versus lightroom/photoshop.

I have to say that the in camera processing is great but.......... The raw files have much more dynamic range then the jpegs. I'm not the best photoshopper or lightroom man but I did my best to let you see what raw files can do.

I also played with difrend kind of settings and I like the OM-D more day by day. It's light, handling is great and response of the camera is perfect.

Now a few examples. I put the same photo's after each other to let you see the diffrence. When you cliq on the photos you can see the photos in big resolution on my flickr account.

Me, my wife and my Om-D in Paris.

I went to Paris for the weekend. A little bit of relaxation from a very busy period. I've still got to get used to the camera so the photo's are not outstanding.

Paris is a very crouded place and I wasn't alone. So I had to take the pictures during our daily walk. I want to go back. But then on a week-day. Not the weekend. And early in the morning or late in the evening when there are not so many people.

Most photo's are straight out of the camera . Black and white photo's I edited in lightroom 4.

I'll hope you enjoy.

All photo's were taken with the Olympus Om-D with 12-50mm kitlens. After two days and 200 photographs I can say I am very happy with my new camera.
