Showcase Olympus 30mm f/3.5 Macro

[Bushboy]

This is a cracking good lens. Nice to use, pleasantly affordable. I have had this on my cam for a couple months now. Been using it for everything. I have been waiting for this mushroom patiently, now after heavy rains they’ve started. This is the first one up. My favourite mushrooms.

Just received this as a freebie from Olympus to go with my new E-M5 III.

Wow, that's a fantastic start Simon.
But I really think that your new lens, just like that Hyacinth should be put away until Christmas Day.

Nearly posted this in the Panasonic 30mm thread by accident! I've been experimenting wtih Colour Grading in Lightroom. Not sure how successfully.

Nice, inexpensive lens. Here are a couple I've taken with it on the E-M5.2.

Just curious, what model K&E slide rule?

It's a 4070-3. Got it from my father-in-law as I just sneaked into the calculator era and didn't have to use a slide rule during engineering school. He used it in engineering in the early 60's.

Nice, my collection is also mostly from my father-in-law, he was in the navy from WWII through Vietnam, and had about a slide rule per decade until calculators took over. Maybe for another thread!
