The arrival of the Pen 1 brought me back into the love of photography after years of indolence having given up film and my B&W darkroom.
I was very frustrated by the focussing limitations in the early days and so added a Leica M9 with an selection of lenses to my bag; the Pen languished...
Then with the firmware updates' improvement in the Pen's performance plus big increases in my processing abilities, I have happily welcomed back my PEN as a viable alternative to my M9, being lighter, cheaper and smaller! I use the pancake 17mm plus the Pan 7-14 and am considering getting a tele-zoom for those times when the M just can't do the job.
I've been reprocessing some of my earlier shots with LR3 plus the Nik Software plugins and been pleasantly surprised!
I look forward to posting and chatting with other members
