I think E-5 competes well, if you don't mind 12MP "only" (which is still good enough to print 11x14"). I've been trying to clean up my Flickr account, so I've been re-reviewing my E-620 photos ...

So far I've been able to cut down my 3800+ images to half of that amount, but the rest is difficult to trim because they have sentimental values. Earlier photos are photo dumps, but last few years...

Depends on your definition: In term of popularity, I think it peaked around E-620 times, and Olympus has financial report to support that. In term of technical features, it continued to be the best ...

Just because some do not have the capacity to learn, but that doesn't mean one should stop educating others. Hope is a dangerous thing, but it's also a beautiful thing.... And it does take...

While there are still black bears in Yosemite, grizzly bears are all gone in that park. I spotted a raven one day, and I had never seen raven, so imagine how magical that experience was, "what a...

One of Ansel Adam's photos fueled the death of one famous tree I know for sure. Which is why when I found a replacement tree to take a photo of, I only used general tag.... True story! Though it...

Haha, but would it stop social media drones?

@Craig from Nevada I think the campaign is more aimed at "please respect nature and this is some people's backyard." I remember there is this famous steps in San Francisco, which is someone's path...

@Krav Naga. Fair point, though the simply effort of putting a manual tag yourself rather than automated gives you chance to think about your photos. Nowadays I spend more time tagging and...

I grew up in the transitional period when the Internet just got introduced to the mass and I can see how social interaction changed dramatically. Internet is supposed to increase people's...

Exactly. People nowadays want quick gratuitous experience. Though I have to admit having some guidance really helps on taking photos, but like you said, if we all do the same thing, it really...

Just turn GPS signal off and add tags manually (for example #Yellowstone, which is very general). Adobe Lightroom or photo sharing websites call tags "keywords." You can add keywords by adding a...

@ stevo23 - fmia gave a great photo example of the compression. If you haven't clicked on his link, look at it. If you prefer scientific explanation, here is is a very good course on compression:...

I don't know why the video creator decided to use a shallow DoF to exhibit his argument, but if he used a f/16 or smaller like f/32, for example, you'd see the gazebo might appear like only a few...

What the person is showing in the video is not compression... (I've never heard of anyone who refers it to "lens compression" either). Compression refers to the way telephoto lenses tend to make...

Agreed with VSCD. Acros is my favorite B&W film. Very sublime tonality. No other film from the other producers have the balanced tonality & sharpness. Delta 100 is sharper but more contrasty. ...
