Handled the EM1X at the show today and was pleasantly surprised - didn't feel a great deal heavier than the G9, and it felt a perfect fit in the hand, not at all bulky. Tesni Ward gave a talk, and ...

On Countryfile recently, there was a disturbing article on illegal bloodsports (hare coursing, dog and cock fighting) being shown on facebook. One picture was of a very young child (about 4)...

I would agree (viewfinder for one), which is why I'm having a problem. However, it's all about the sync IS, and having looked at some of my shutter speeds with the 100-400, I want to be able to ...

Thanks Rick, I think I shall get the EM1 2, so long as MPB honour their quote, although I think the G9 pre burst is better than Pro Capture, as it adjusts focus throughout the burst - I understand ...

Yes, that's my approach. I was on Mull last week, and yet again I missed a couple of good shots of the otter shaking water off itself because of too slow a shutter speed (1/500) - I think I'm ...

For the wildlife I shoot you can rarely get too close - the only one which actually might come toward you and ignore you if it has caught something large is the otter, and then it wouldn't come ...

That's ok Harold, thanks for your input, it is appreciated Very true, and I'm thinking that if the new 2 TC is as good as the 1.4 TC on the 300 then that extra dual stabilization may be needed ...

You've got to be joking !!! My main interests are Mountain Hares (winter), Otters, Dolphins (summer), Red Deer and Water Voles. Apart from Dolphins, where the Oly 40-150 is a great compromise, all ...

Have got a good trade in offer from MPB for numerous bodies and lens's I don't use anymore against an EM1 2 or Pen F. The problem (not really a problem) is that I'm getting on quite well with the ...

When I bought my 2nd hand (as new) 300mm 2 weeks ago I was told prices were going up in a few weeks time, seems like it wasn't just sales talk.

Course it serves a purpose.
There has to be a yardstick by which a lens's reach and field of view can be judged, whether it's a phone, video camera, compact camera, whatever - and that yardstick is...

"Why on earth should he? FF is a standart, not m43."

Wrong. 35mm is the 'standard' by which we define the reach of a lens (the first criteria when we choose a lens), and that comes from film...

@hubertus bigend " If you shoot an E-M1 II at ISO 100 (200), the A9 will still be able to get similar-quality results at ISO 400 (800). And that's about what it does"
And will that apply if you...

And with a viewfinder (any quality is better than none), which as the GM5 proved after the GM1 doesn't need to make the camera much larger.

Hi Liz What made you sell the Pen but keep the G85 ?

You've posted iso comparisons again - and yet again, to me anyway, the G9's sensor (or processing in both jpg and raw), has produced the best results. Off topic, but interesting.

Anybody help ?

The FZ1000 2 isn't smaller than the original by any chance?

Anyone use this combination please? I now have the lens, and I'm happy with it down to 1/80 sec with the G9, but for 'emergencies' I wondered what it would be like with the dual IS on the Pen F ...
