Re: ND filter...about to jump
The "incidents" I've read several months ago had nothing to do with "being a little over picky" about image quality. The posters were complaining about very noticeable effects in the editing bay...

Re: Olympus 12-40 on a GH3?
If you have enough lighting contrast for autofocus to work well, rack focus is pretty easy with "touch focus" enabled. The 12-35 should work well with this as well as most Olympus m4/3 lenses.

Re: VERY Inexpensive Camera Cages!
The only cage "tailored" to anything on that site is the FHugen Honu cage for the GH3. I have one and it's pretty good with the GH3 as it should be, however I'll mostly be using the GB1 even with...

VERY Inexpensive Camera Cages!
I was NOT inclined to go this route. I like keeping things simple, light weight, and minimalist! Besides which most "rigs" and cages were quite expensive. But when I saw the pictures, videos, and...

Re: Crop Factor
Dennis,
