Hi folks,

 

There seems to be two main lens options for rectilinear ultra-wide (weitwinkel) angle (so no fisheye) in the micro four-thirds galaxy: Panasonic 7-14mm and Olympus 9-18mm.

 

Which one is best?

 

In case the answers are "it dependsish", I would look at the following scenario:

Camera = Olympus OM-D EM5.

Things that matter (for me):

-Sharpness

-Image quality in general (I read on DPreview that the 7-14 Pana's cromatic aberrations were discarded by in-camera software on Pana cameras, but not on Oly ones, is that an issue underwater?)

-Good for Close Focus Wide Angle.

-Fast AF

 

thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts & experience :-)

See this article for your choices http://www.uwphotogr...thirds-cameras. Adobe Lightroom 4 has a "remove chromatic aberration" tool now. Its under lens correction.
