Why would you bother to do this on an inexpensive lens?  The plastic mount on that lens has held up very well for me and I can't see any point in trying to replace it.  It the mount does fail, ...

I'll take it!  PM sent.

My first digital SLR was the Olympus E-520 two lens kit (refurbished) that I purchased through Olympus.  Since then, I've a purchased a few items that way and I've only had one problem.  I ordered ...

I agree that having both the 12-40 Pro and the 40-150 Pro combined make a fairly heavy kit.  I have the same dilemma, but at this point, I wouldn't get rid of the 40-150 Pro because I love it for ...

I'm a fan of the KISS principle!  I owned and used the PL-2, and then the PL-5 and as with every camera I've owned, you simply learn to see what works and doesn't work.  When I owned and used ...

Here's a good article on how to do it with Olympus cameras. And the cameras that can do it are: E M1, Mark II & III, E M5 Mark III and E MIX, https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/video/tips-and-sol ...

My mistake....gotta be more careful when I read.  And my apology to the OP!

Another thing to consider is how well, if at all, a rubber hood will protect your lens if "stuff" happens, which also may depend on whether you use clear/UV filters for lens protection or not. I ...

I'd also suggest either the E M10 Mark II or E M5 Mark II as either can be found used for a pretty low price and both can capture great images. With the savings by buying used, start getting a ...

Thanks for the information.  I am within the first year of ownership, so that explains the free upgrade.  I'm running Windows 10, so I didn't even think of any problems in that area. I did have to ...

I updated my version and after a few uses, it seems that they have improved the processing speed considerably!  The upgrade process was easy with no glitches. I'm impressed that this company ...

Your point is valid to some degree, but there were posts that responded about lower cost alternatives.  And, it's just a matter of being a little polite and responding to a thread that you ...

I've purchased several Vello lens hoods and they work well at a great price. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/845925-REG/vello_lho_61e_olympus_lh_61e_lens_hood.html/?ap=y&ap=y&smp=y&smp=y&lsf ...

I've used the E M10 and then the E M10 Mark II for quite a few years and it will certainly work for wildlife as long as you know it has it's limitations with fast moving subjects such as birds in ...

I can't name an individual.  I was using a Panasonic FZ-20 bridge camera and getting very interested in photography.  So, I decided I wanted to get a digital SLR camera so I could use different ...

The Condor MOLLE gadget pouch looks interesting as it looks as though you could attack it to the shoulder straps of a backpack.  What do you think?

I was looking for a good fitting lens case for the Olympus MC-20 2X teleconverter and I couldn't find a lens case that wasn't too big.  Then, I came across this case which is designed for a GoPro ...

I purchased the 40-150 Pro and made the mistake of selling my 40-150 f4-5.6.  I love the pro lens, but realized that there are times when I want to travel on the light side and the budget 40-150 ...

No problems with the E M10 Mark II I currently own, and it wasn't a problem with the M10 (original "Mark I") that I owned for quite a few years.  I take good care of my gear, but it is used quite ...

Well, I know I've seen the three prime lenses referred to as the trinity of Olympus primes. But, perhaps there is another trinity referring to zoom lenses?? But...if you do a quick search, you'll ...
