I was also hoping (but not expecting) the OM-5 to be their high rez flagship above all else.  At least the 25mp sensor that is in the Panasonic.

You are right.  I don't see it going any cheaper.  And figure in inflation.  Buying now at CA$3300 might (might) be an investment. For myself I'm really tempted at the D850, been eyeing it for ...

With camera shortages (chips), price increases and inflation I didn't think I would see the D850 rebated again, in Canada anyways. Cdn$600 instant rebate.

It's a pity the object of the battle got blown out. Otherwise nice action shots.  I think they look over sharpened.

I came for the Panasonic 20 f/1.7.  Stayed for the flippy screen.  Staying for the 60 /2.8 macro and focus stacking.

You can fool some people all of the time......😏 and 😁

Yah, the dealer where I bought all of my MFT equipment as late over the shelf as recent as 3 years ago no longer stocks Olympus, and they don't sound interested in special ordering it either... ...

I bought a refurbished xz-1 a long time ago from the Canadian Olympus site, and it's still going strong without issues.  I keep an eye on the USA website for stuff and might take a crack at ...

Have you dealt with GetOlympus Canada in the past? I've often been tempted to order directly from them instead of other online store or local store. Do you find any advantage? Have you ever seen ...

Make a jig for super 8mm please. With gear for 1-frame advancement.

You need to get out more.  Or get a subscription to USA Back-Yard Geographic

@Impulses... sorry I spotted my silly calculation and just changed my text now. Now your reply will not seem to make sense... sorry. I'll add another "sorry" 'cause I'm a Canadian.

Nice 40-150. I've been waiting for a compact F4 MFT

Linda dot com used to have a running weekly class for newcomers to shooting video. They also had a similar class for experienced film makers and high end gear. Of course all the classes are ...
