About 4/3rds Critiques

The concept behind the creation of this group is to give users of the Olympus 4/3rds cameras a place to have their work critiqued (hopefully) by fellow 4/3rds users.

1. Don't Post and Run - All though commenting is not mandatory (yet!), please take time to review pictures posted by others and comment on them. As the name says the group is about critiques and not just a place to showcase your 2nd place winning shot in Smallville's Tiny photo group.

2. Thou shall be ridiculed - When you add an image to the pool, it's understood that you are looking for feedbacks/suggestions etc. So if someone's comment doesn't say, "Oh my god, that's an exceptional picture" don't be offended and start a hate campaign against him/her. Be ready to accept "You need to improve" types.

3. "Awesome", "Nice", "Wonderful" etc. - Yes, we've heard that before. All though we like these words, just don't comment with one word, for the sake of it. Your comment is supposed to improve someone's work. Try to convey your critique in nice positive way.

4. "Your IS2 feature is set instead of IS1, hence the horizontal blur" - Yes, this is a 4/3 group. So some of the critique may involve gear specific comments. But spreading Camera Gear Acquisiton Syndrome is also not cool.

5. If you think, the photo you posted in the pool wasn't critiqued, post it in one of the threads. So that you can get some special attention!

6. The only rules are that you must have taken the picture with a 4/3rds camera and the Exif data reflect that.
