Hall of Famer
I sold my OMD recently for a number of reasons. This was after acquiring a NEX 5n. When I had both, I ran some tests, and I noticed two things: the 5n tended to have less pf and also sharper edges and corners than the OMD with the CV40/1.4. Since I was thinking of selling the OMD anyway, based on these tests, I sold it so I could concentrate on the 5n.
Below is a screen shot of one of the many snaps I took using the two cameras, with the same lens at f/4.0. I have others, but they all show the same thing.
Any ideas on this? I heard Sony had put some money into the new 16MP sensor to address legacy glass at the corners. New micro lens designs, etc. Could that be what's going on? I also noticed that my OMD generally added more pf in a lot more of my shots than my previous m43 cameras, but as I did not have any other m43 cameras to test against the OMD, I couldn't confirm on direct comparisons.
If you are wondering about both being in focus, I can do center crops at a later time, but both are in focus on the center, though again the OMD shows a bit more pf in the center. These are both from the left edge. Also interesting is the full stop difference in exposure the two cameras chose (both shot on A mode with the CV40 set at f/4.0)
