Mate $3.00 off what a bargain just for a laugh I tried a Panasonic GH3 and it was $1.99 discount.Less than two bucks off a $1300 camera, good way to win friends 'Not'.Anyways since they won't ship...

Its not that hard to isolate using Snapseeds Tilt shift function. Would look a lot better with your EM-5's raw file , The xz-1 sensor is small so you can only push it so far. which lens did you use?

I feel every Olympus 4/3rds user got the short end of the stick when it comes to the SLR saga. The quality glass was never cheap and to be stuck having to use it on a M4/3rds body with an adapter...

Had to use that glove mate just in case, the Australian government does not provide a nail  clipping service for our wildlife!Nice shots of the mini dinosaur, must have been hard to focus when they...

Diesel fumes are an attractant  Olympus Machine Oil is the secret to bring them in closer

Thank you all for your  kind comments.  cheers Aaron

Hi Skeys, too many biting insects here to list, but if i am spending a day out in the bush DEET is my friend. The only venomous spiders I usually encounter are the rebacks which make you quite sick...

Hi Ben, you can definitely take these guys off your dangerous animals list.They are not at all aggressive to humans, I was  being cautious as I was invading its comfort zone , and it had not seen...

As promised earlier with the bearded dragon images here are some of a Goanna, approximately 120cm long.Previously thought non venomous  researchers have now found that they have venom ducts which...

Mate save a couple of fingers for the lens ring on the xz-1! :-) A work of art was already created previously

Just one other thing to note with the Olympus cameras both SLR and M4/3rds is that dust on the sensor will require a visit to repair centre since the moving sensor has a greater chance of damage...

The advantages of the EP-5 is the ISO 100 setting and the higher shutter speed plus the first of the PEN series to get the 5 axis IBIS , much better and useful than the two axis system previously...

Hi Ben,  just some info for you , apparently the VF4 does not show the image at the same resolution /quality? on the earlier Pen models or the XZ-2, so I  wonder if there will be compatibility with...

Hi Ben, Went up north for a few days to the Cooloola coast, what is know as the Great Sandy National Park, Tin Can Bay , Fraser Island and Rainbow beach. Internet is a bit patchy up there. Took...

good luck with it mate , I found this piece of timber for you but there was something stuck to it!

" I feel a little heat on the front side of the camera even with the tough shell so I stop." I am not a scientist so feel free to rip me to shreds on this one but this is how my logic plays...

I was pulling your leg about spaceship!  btw the processor components in your camera have to work a lot harder on a 12MP file and that heat you felt is contributing to component wear and tear,...

was it the new stealth fighter or some other fantastic phenomenon that justified 676 images in 11 minutes. You probably are damaging components in your camera subjecting it to these stresses....

If you want to keep the cost down and get something that will be compatible with other cameras after all your camera is a 9 year old model then look at these...
