Moving to an Oly E1 from my Pana FZ10 there were three things that I was going really miss - that lovely Leica designed f2.8 lens, Livepreview and Pana's IS. I still miss Liveview and IS a lot, although I've now got the 14-54 Zd but I never thought it possible to get sharp blur free images at 1/20s or slower without IS but I've been able to get some pretty decent slow shutter speed shots handheld and the other day managed to get one at 1/3s!

1. At the V&A yesterday. Oly E1+14-54 ZD at ISO 400, spot metering, f3.3 and 1/3 s (accidentely set to 1/3 s)

2. Taken last week at ISO400 1/6 s f4.5 - this was the slowest I'd managed before the V&A shot.

3. This one taken last week as the sun was settign after work in the city:

ISO 800/ f5.0 @ 1/15s

All three shots were taken without any support and even when I use eth FZ10 with IS i was never able to get a sharp image at 1/6 or 1/3s. So, I'd really like to see what the slowest shots you guys and gals have managed to get hand held.

    Both of them are tack sharp but i really like No.2 - you can feel the kid in red moving in the shot and the lady in the shot is just perfectly still!
