    Small Rant [smRant]

    I use lens hood when not using filters or balancing on gimbals. Not sure where I said I didn’t, maybe this was for someone else?

    Small Rant [smRant]

    Having had both cameras, the GX85 is the em10 competitor and not the em5. Weather sealing alone jumps the em5 up a class. The Em5 when it came out competed more directly with the gx8 and g80/85. The new gx9 is the direct competitor to the em10iii. Yes, the Em5ii is at the end of life so value...

    Panasonic 10-25mm f1.7 Announced

    I'm too new at video to be an expert on this. For what I have done so far, leaving on IS doesn't seem to cause anything negative I have noticed but many online references say to turn it off as well.

    Panasonic 10-25mm f1.7 Announced

    Got mine last week. Big but lighter than expected. Also I can make it balance on an Ronin SC with an ND filter (with my EM1ii) and a small amount of counterweights so it works on a relatively small gimbal as well. Driving from San Francisco to San Diego via pacific coast highway this week, I’m...

    M1 mk II fires more than once in S-AF mode

    S-AF is the focus/exposure mode. Are you talking about single shot drive mode? If you were in any of the continuous low or high modes, and held down the release it will fire at the appropriate FPS. Drive mode is one of the two buttons on the top left of camera by power lever. Click it and use...

    OM-D E5 Mk III ...

    The e-m5ii had many features the e-m1i did not have when it released. I think we can expect at least a few. 20mpix, PDAF (with video like X), HHHR/Live ND, at least e-m1ii IBIS, usb-c pd, 4k60/1080p120 are my hope with price in the $1100-1400 range. Joystick/BLH1 battery would be bonus...

    [Experience wanted] No serious comparisons between 12-100 and 14-140?

    I don’t have both lenses but a couple of other things to think. 1) Loss of Sync IS using the 12-100 on a Panasonic body. Your stabilization performance is likely slightly worse since most newer Panasonic bodies support dual IS with the 14-140ii. 2) No DFD autofocus, not sure if this is...

    Why is the Pana GM5 so Rare?!

    I had one and while the size was nice, the rest was too small. I ended up moving up to Pen-F for my small body. I probably would prefer something in between but when push came to shove the Pen-F always went out with me and the GM5 sat on the sidelines. Top 3 reasons: - Control size - IBIS -...

    Panasonic TTL remote flash

    If you don’t need weathersealing, buy Godox (Flashpoint @ Adorama) stuff for m43 lighting. Much more overall system flexibility and value that you can grow with while not breaking the bank like Profoto.

    Bag Question - Space for Non-Photo Gear?

    Bag Question - Space for Non-Photo Gear?

    So many bags. One for every occasion... I have slings, messengers and backpacks that range from 5L to 45L. For trips where I have to take a decent amount of gear plus other stuff, I go with Peak Design Everyday 20L, Shimoda 30L, or Peak Design Travel Backpack (30-45L depending on config). The...

    OMD E-M1X Previews, reviews, and official announcement

    Got to play with the camera tonight at Looking Glass in Berkley, CA. A few observations, having watched/read almost all the preview/reviews I was still surprised by a few things. Was surprised how fast the actual picture taking portion of HHHR was. The compositing of the final image seemed to...

    Panasonic 100-400 lens on EM 1 Mark ii camera.

    No, it will basically auto turn it off when it detects the lens has OIS from my understanding.

    Panasonic 100-400 lens on EM 1 Mark ii camera.

    Regarding image stabilization when using Panasonic OIS lens on Olympus body. If both are on, the active one is based on the Lens I.S. Priority setting in menu C2. If this is on, the camera will use lens OIS instead of IBIS with non-Olympus lenes.

    OMD E-M1X Previews, reviews, and official announcement

    This is a video focus comparison, E-M1mk2 does not apply those settings to video recording. PDAF during video is new to E-M1X from everything I have read.

    Showcase Panasonic 14mm f/2.5 & DMW-GWC1 Wide Converter (11mm focal length)

    Just got mine yesterday off eBay. Going to try it out soon but with the PL 15 1.7 instead of the 14 2.5. This will make it closer to 12mm but maybe it will benefit from being on the optically better 15 and shed a bit of the corner softness.

    Does shooting in RAW ruin the fun in photography?

    Editing is half the fun and important as well for me. Outside of very staged shots, it is not possible to get everything perfect OOC. I think of photography as curating what is seen and not seen. Much of this happens at the time of the shot but often it is not possible. I’m also one of those...

    Peak Capture V3?

    Capture v3 is better on the em1.2, the tripod hole is now elongated, so it allows the plate to be installed without overhanging the body. It essentially counters the off center tripod mount of many Oly bodies. I have multiple v2 and the v3 for reference and the em1.2.

    New gx85 + godox tt350o = dark

    It will always show 14mm if you pull out the wide angle defuser panel. Put that back in to enable auto zoom. You can keep the white bounce card out if you want.

    Looking for some image processing advice

    Just a slight nuance here: Slight white balance adjustments to jpeg is fine but the WB is really important to get right if you don’t use raw. WB is essentially “saved” to all of the pixels in jpeg, where as in raw it is just a stored value in the metadata that is applied by the editing software...
