I found that I was always forgetting to turn off the IS when I used my E-M1 on a tripod, and recently I realised that I had forgot to turn it on again afterwards resulting in some less than sharp night shots (although some were still sharp all the same, which I suppose is to be expected at 1/30s and 12mm). I hit upon a solution to this, which was to set up one of my Mysets as a tripod mode, with IS off, ISO at 200 rather than auto, and aperture priority with the aperture at f5.6. I'm interested whether anybody else has done this?
Realllyyy wish Olympus would let you name the mysets. Once you start using them it can be hard to remember what each one is.
Absolutely. Actually I have two tripod modes-one similar to yours, and one with jpeg, 16:9, manual focus for time-lapse.
I have one, though not exactly for tripod. I find leaving IBIS on is perfectly fine actually, even for long exposure astrophotography. Mine is M mode, face detect off, S-AF/MF, Live View Boost 1, f/4, 1/250s (sync speed of my slowest flash), ISO200, Kelvin WB. I use it for long exposures on a tripod and manual flash.
Yep, I used to do a bit of night shooting, with tripod, so I had tripod myset. Turn off IS, base iso, 10s timer delay, bracketing as well.
Have you guys told Olympus that? I have and I believe they might react to the suggestion if enough people let them know we wanted that feature...
