Subject: [OM] E-1 lenses resolution vs conventional lenses - fact or
hype?
Olympus is claiming their new E-1 lenses have greater resolution and
this is a necessity for their new system, as well as one of their
reasons for not offering the OM adapter. I am skeptical about this.
Why are they all of a sudden able to produce lenses of supposedly
superior resolution? What new technology in glass or lens design has
enabled this? Why have no other manufacturers come up with it? For
years, the various manufacturers have been in hot competition to win the
best lens resolution test scores, and the Zuikos were always at least in
the top tier of lenses. If there was a way to make a lens with higher
resolution, why didn't all the manufacturers jump on it?
