  • On that note, whilst searching I've been avoiding cameras with lenses slower than f/2 really,

    although going from a crop sensor camera with a 30mm 1.4 lens, to a 35mm film camera with 42mm 2.8 such as on that olympus, the minimum depth of field possible won't be all that different right?

  • well it depends what size crop sensor but there won't be a huge difference either way, both will create very useable images. I'd say forget going for the widest aperture you can and buy the Olympus but if you really want that narrow DoF the the cannonet gIII ql17
    Has an f 1.7 40mm lens.

    Imo the Olympus lens is sharper and the camera a lot more user friendly.
