OLYMPUS OM-D E-M5 vs NIKON D800 Video Test

Blunty3000 Posted about his comparison the OLYMPUS OM-D E-M5 vs NIKON D800.He said that Olympus's new flagship Micro four thirds camera the OM-D E-M5 Versus Nikon's Shiny new D800 Full frame shoooter. Olympus OM-D E-M5 with the fantastic M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm F1.8
The Nikon D800 with the much lusted after Nikkor 85mm f/1.4G...
It's as close as makes no real difference an equivalent (effective) focal length FOV on each camera.
(the D800 is full frame, and the E-M5 has a 2x crop factor, giving the 45mm lens an 35mm equivalent focal length of 90mm)

 


Both set to record 1080@30P, using the Standard picture profiles on each, ISO set to 200, shutter & aperture set to full manual mode, and Focus S-AF. And cameras were recording each scene simultaneously, mounted to the same monopod (using a hot-shoe extension bar & appropriate adapters)
This May not be a fair fight in stills mode, given the VAST difference in megapixel resolution... 16MP vs 36MP... But in VIDEO mode, where the play-ground is levelled as much as posisble, and with both cameras independently impressing video shooters in early testing & reviews...
Well, it proved to be a very interesting head-to-head shootout indeed...
What do you think?


            The latest rumors from nikonrumors posted that Nikon will reduce the price of the D800/D800E DSLR cameras in the US on December 15th, 2012. And expect the D800/D800E price drop to be also $200. You can read more detail from nikon rumors(click here).
