>>It seems like Olympus EM1 II doesn't correct CA in camera for Tamron 14-150. I would have been very surprised if it DID correct CA on that lens

Hello, A m43 f1.8 lens will have the same depth-of-field of a f3.6 FF lens (2x.) That is why you need a faster m43 lens to get shallow DOF. A m43 lens is NOT reducing the amount of light hitting ...

That's my point. People are taking a stand for and against third-party battery makers without providing any backup information. I have heard of problems with Olympus OEM batteries too,

How do you know that the 3rd party battery manufacturers aren't making OEM batteries for Olympus, Panasonic, Canon, Nikon, Fuji ...etc ?

No Mountain Lions out there? How about Road Runners?  :-)

I sold my 9-18 to fund my 12-45 f4 Pro. If I knew the 8-25 f4 Pro was coming, I would have waited, Now, I am considering adding a Panasonic 9 1.7. So, my recommendation would be to replace the 9-18 ...

You looked in the right place.  Not sure what is wrong, but I would probably do a reset. My M-10 II would get confused once in a while and a reset cleared it back up. It's a pain if you have a lot ...

I think the new version was just the addition of support for the new 90mm Macro lens.

I would say: 12-100 is too cumbersom 8-25 is too wide 12 f2 is maybe a little wide 25 1.8 would be my recommendation.

Another hit and run ...

I agree, but with an image starting out like what you had, it takes some experimentation, trian-and-error etc.  It's a really nice image. I hope it gets where you want it.

I go birding with my brother frequently. He has a D500 plus 300 2.8 and teleconverter. He tries to handhold, but his success rate is a little lower than he wants. Last time he was using a monopod. ...

Really nice work!  Birds are beautiful and nicely positioned on the tree. I am thinking that you could have increased sharpening in Topaz a bit.

Like any other types photography sharp focusing is critical  I assume with HHHR you might frequently have soft images as well. Softness might bE more obvious in a much larger image. I recommend ...

Very beautiful girl and excellent portraits. Not sure about the plastic plate though. Is that to send a message of some sort?

I live in North America and have a big brown opossum that regularly crosses my yard. He is really big.  I have never heard of an opossum climbing into a tree. I agree, they are pretty dumb. They ...

I have a big fat brown possum in my backyard frequently at night .... it's a big pest, but not as much as the raccoons!

I thought it was going to be about 16Mpx vs 66Mpx   lol

Very nice shots. Who said dead leaves can't look pretty  :-) I used my 40-150 plastic lens on my M-10 II for years. It is very sharp. Its a nice combo. Very light. Mark
