One of the nicest surprises I had from moving to mirrorless!
I always thought this lens was a dog. Even on two tripods (second strapped to
the front section of the lens), with weights hanging form each, I could not get
a sharp image out of that lens on an E-3. Adapted to a DSLR, there was to
aperture crash, just the mirror flapping, but that particular lens rang like a
bell, with the linear blur characteristic of vibration.
Then I put it on one tripod, no added weight, 12-second self-timer, on the OM-D
E-M1 Mark II - and got painfully sharp images!
It's amazing what a 40-year-old can do, if you give him a new body... I could
use one of those... :-)
