Re: Weathersealing, questions

These are just wonderful. I will go to Costa Rica next July and want to take an EM-1 and some standard, non-weathersealed lenses (Ply 9-18 and Oly 45,1,7 and 40-150 (cheap one). Do you think weathersealing really makes a big difference in terms of lenses ? Of course the glass will be protected by a filter. But what can happen to a lens if it gets a little wet ? I understand that a body should be weatherproof but for the lens I cannot imagine what could happen in the mist/humidity. What do you think ? Is it really mandatory to bring weathersealed lenses ?
Kind regards,
Stefan
TAKE A WEATHER SEALED LENS! It's said Costa Rica has two seasons, the wet season and the wetter season. Not only you're getting a weather sealed combo but also a 2.8 zoom which is crucial shooting in the rain forest.
Back to the OP: Nice shots especially in a difficult photography environment. I went to Costa Rica, Arenal last year in the wetter season and it was a very challenging shooting conditions. Next year I'm thinking of going to Madagascar.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
