    EM10 II Shutter Problem

    Oddly enough it happens with ibis off and electronic shutter. Maybe the ibis is loose? Hoping warranty covers whatever it may be.

    EM10 II Shutter Problem

    Turns out to be a focus issue. I demonstrated the issue in a video. Have you guys seen this before on any Oly bodies? I'm able to get a receipt within warranty so will be sending it in to Oly. I'm hoping they can fix it, this is otherwise a nice clean copy of the body I got for a good price...

    EM10 II Shutter Problem

    Oddly enough image is not brighter. I just shot a 400ms shot on a table with the Panasonic 20mm and there's blur =/. I'm going to try to send back to seller or have him repair. Definitely something wrong with it.

    EM10 II Shutter Problem

    Hey guys, bought a used EM10 II for my mother-in-law to replace her aging Panasonic G3. The user had a great rating and in communications with him. The issue I'm having is a rather odd one, and I've had an EM5, EP5, EPM2, EPL7 and EM1 so I know my way quite well around an Olympus camera. With...

    Panasonic GX80 / GX85 - First impressions

    Thank you for this, this camera has me hanging on to m43 and not fully ditching it for e-mount. This satisfies my biggest gripe with the system. The split between 5-axis and good video between vendors.

    Em5 II possible for bif and sports?

    E-PM2 with two primes: what to upgrade

    Sharpness is most noticeable in low light. If you normally are up to 3200 ISOs the extra grain on the o17 is very noticeable to just about every other prime. Perhaps the Panasonic 15mm is a better option over the 17. Gives you a wider range too, to your o45. And I've have both and notice I...

    Second body to accompany E-M10?

    I would get the epl7. Saves you money, gives you similar results to all your options, you can do selfies (which I find myself doing more then I expected, I'm in the pictures now!), and similar battery. I find myself grabbing the epl7 over my em1 a lot of the time. Also I noticed it focuses...

    E-PL6 vs GX1

    I've used MANY m43 cameras and the GX1, for me, has been the worst with shutter shock. I would steer clear from it. I haven't used the EPL6 but I have the EPM2 and while it deosn't exhibit shutter shock (anti shock on at least) I was disappointed with the IBIS which I know it shares with the...

    Rumor Time: Olympus patent for FF 28 f2 lens

    I just looked at the new Leica SL lenses they've released at launch. It's a 24-90 and 90-280 2.8 - 4 plus a 50mm 1.4 prime. Is it me or are these Olympus patents good company with the current Leica set? Hmmmmm.

    Rumor Time: Olympus patent for FF 28 f2 lens

    Actually I should have said that too =). If Sony gets low light AF, touch screen, and gets a 2.8 native zoom set then at least for me, my m43 kit is in jeapordy. Not entirely I'd keep the p20 (or p15), p42.5, p14-140 and a small body for times i need a tiny kit or go on vacation and my...

    Rumor Time: Olympus patent for FF 28 f2 lens

    Agreed that's been on my mind too. It's just oddly I don't find the A7II high iso performance as good as I would expect so F4 would be rough indoors at times. I'd prob swtich to A7S with that lens in mind. I can't afford the a7rii which seems much better in low light also.

    Rumor Time: Olympus patent for FF 28 f2 lens

    I have 3 bodies and similar lenses and again, changing glass is super annoying especially since most of my shooting is my family.

    Rumor Time: Olympus patent for FF 28 f2 lens

    I believe Olympus going FF (hopefully joint and open platform like m43) is potentially an effort to protect existing customers. Including myself, look how many folks on this forum are shooting Sony A7 bodies. There are a few areas m43 loses to bigger sensors and that's noise (low light /...

    E-M1 V4 Silent Shutter, Street Photog, Slow Shutter Limit gone!

    Yep, this bothers me quite a bit as well. One thing I'm considering so I at least use silent sometimes is do a preset into M and S that put keep it silent mode. In A I'll use mechanical shutter so I get my minimum shutter speed back. Except for various lighting situations I would have left...

    It's the 25th...where's 4.0

    Wow! Focus bracketing / stacking combo is awesome! I wonder what's up with the limited lenses? Hopefully that expands because it's super useful. Also the new focus peaking options makes this system a hair better then even the Sony focus peaking. At least to my eye it seems more effective...

    It's the 25th...where's 4.0

    This seems to be an issue with EM5 and EM10 MKII bodies as well. Major bummer, I won't be using silent shutter indoors too much without that minimum shutter speed ability =(. I like controlling just aperture indoors while not worrying about iso or shutter speed going to low. Anyone else...

    It's the 25th...where's 4.0

    Nevermind I found it. It's on custom menu "D" ONLY if you're in regular shooting mode. The option disappears when you're in silent mode. Also you can't set max ISO past 3200 while in silent mode as well. You need to be in regular mode if you want to set it higher. FYI.

    It's the 25th...where's 4.0

    Another major issue for me. Minimum shutter speed doesn't work in silent shutter =/. I used the flash min sync speed and it works fine as a minimum shutter for regular shooting. Put silent on and that minimum is no longer in effect. So now, not only can I NOT make regular shutter not have a...

    It's the 25th...where's 4.0

    On the E-M1 anyone find a way to shut off autofocus beep in regular shooting modes outside of silent? It seems they assume if you don't want silent mode you want beeps =(. I'm not down with the beeps silent shutter or not. Maybe I'm not finding the setting? I recall having even a volume...

    You married your camera? Or you found a way to do upgrades on the significant? =p Like others after upgrading my EM1 I let my EPM2 upgrade my lenses to minimize risk to my more expensive body =p. Not sure there was any.

    Thank you Stephen. I wish I could keep both but man this hobby puts a serious dent in the funds! You know, if the 35-100 had a good 2x or 1.4x adapter I might flip the listing. Looking at my lightroom shots I shoot quite a bit at max focal length with the 40-150 so made my choice on that.
