I do the opposite (JPEG to slot 1, RAW to slot 2) because OlShare app only works with slot 1 and since I use the JPEGs to feed Instagram and social media, I need to access the JPEGs from my phone. ...

I backed up my settings before updating the firmware, did the update using the SD card method and reloaded my settings. I got an on screen message that reloading the settings failed, but when I ...

I also prefer updating via the SD card as outlined here: https://lightsnowdev.com/Olympus/index.html But to answer your question directly, try this: 1) Open System Preferences 2) Click on Security ...

Improvements in the sensor (especially high ISO), improvements in autofocus and reduced shutter roll would be three things that might prompt people to buy new. Those and GAS.

I use the electronic shutter a lot for all the reasons others have mentioned. I will add another reason. Higher max shutter speed. Max mechanical shutter speed on E-M1 Mark II is 1/8000. Max ...

I got the error message when I updated my first E-M1 Mark II but I didn't get it on the second one. (I updated my cameras via the SD card rather than the Oly updater. So my settings weren't saved ...

Mine is the same as my first camera for two reasons. 1) Muscle memory. Controls, settings etc are the same so going from camera to camera is seamless (I use primes and frequently use both cameras ...

Easily 5 out of 5. For me, it's a game changer. Using my primes I can handhold for multiple second photos. With the 12mm f2, 2 seconds is easy. 15-20 seconds is doable if there's something steady ...

If you're using LR6 you'll be waiting in vain. Adobe isn't updating it any longer. If you're using CC there should be an update when Adobe gets around to it. In the meantime, you could use the ...

I tried to update my FW and the Oly FW Updater app doesn't show v2 being available to me yet. My E-M1 Mark II bodies are registered in the US. I go to the My Olympus page ...

M4:3 Rumors is reporting that the new E-M1 Mark II firmware is available today. https://www.43rumors.com/can-get-new-e-m1ii-firmware-now/

I have playback set to slot 2. My Ol Share app sees and works with only slot 1. I've done a couple of emails with Olympus tech support and been told that at this time Ol Share only works with slot 1.

That is correct. The OI Share app only "sees" card slot 1. If you use the remote function to control the camera, all files are saved to slot 1. If you use GPS Tagging, it will only tag images in ...

Yes. It's still supported and it still makes great photos. In some ways, the image processing is better than the E-M1 Mark II (I'm thinking specifically of how it makes BW JPEGs).

I have both. The pictures the combo makes are great. The Pen F does a fine job resolving the lens. But the carrying the combo is awkward. By M4:3 standards it is a big lens. But, IMO, the lens is ...

I'm left eyed. I keep the screen closed. I also kept the screens closed on my E-M5 Mark IIs and keep them closed on E-M1 Mark IIs. I find the screens a distraction. I only use them when I'm doing ...

What are your reliability issues? Mine have been rock solid. Better than my Canons were when I was using full frame.

You don't watch enough Netflix. :-D

It depends on what computer system you're on, what you're currently using for photo management and what your needs are. If your needs are complex and you shoot a lot of raw files, Capture One is an ...

These questions are difficult to impossible because everyone's needs are different. There hasn't been much word of Pen F Mark II, just wish lists floating around. The E-M5 Mark II will probably be ...
