Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.
Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

I've been keen to put the E-M1 through it's paces, but there hasn't been much opportunity of late. I got to take a few photos of grandson #3 last night. Unfortunately and for some unfathomable reason, I had the image quality selected as jpg/very low res, so there's very little room for leeway in PP. I normally shoot Olympus RAW as the files are easy to work with, (unlike Fuji, where it's jpg all the way.) All in all, the 12-40 lens does a very good job IMHO. The Olympus colours are good, if just a tad warm. The facial recognition focussing is reasonable but the eyes could be a tad sharper. Maybe the camera would do a better job if the baby stayed still, but this was impossible. They always say that only a madman photographs animals and kids...

The last is a great capture of the little fella. I don't see any degradation due to the crop.

Nice all round camera indeed Matt. IQ is not quite in the class of the Fuji, so the XP1 will stay for important shoots (like my daughter's wedding in a couple of weeks). I can live with 12-40mm/Olympus and 35mm/Fuji combo. President, A.A.A.A.A (Australian Association Against Acronym Abuse)

The last one...definitely! But, I would crop the area on the right up to the shoulder.
