It was Neowise that I wanted to use FT lenses for. I did manage to catch a few quick shots:, of it in the very worst part of my night sky: low in the sky and  over Saskatoon (pop. 1/4 million). Com ...

Completely agree, Peter.  After all, taking one's time under the starry sky is what it's all about.  But, sigh, I guess I'll have to go back to the E-5 to use those great lenses. It may be worth at ...

Very well put. I've been using Olympus since my OM1 in 1973 and even had a collection of Pen FT and Fv cameras and lenses.  Time after time, they've survived predictions of demise, but it has, as ...

I just received my EM1iii and need help setting up especially its new "MyMenu" function and video aspects. Wrotniak, who used to be so very helpful, hasn't posted anything new since January 14th ...

She's making a very obvious point on the main reason so many *thinking* serious photographers defy brand-snobbery and simple-minded sensor size stupidities to buy Olympus.

In 20202, does DPreview really lack the technology and expertise to translate at least the subtitles into English? I understand only a few words of Japanese, and that's probably more than many...

Happily for Olympus users, that has not been the actual general experience.  Olympus updates could certainly be more frequent, but several of them have been comprehensive and added new features ...

There appears to also be some kind of "front ending" for Olympus customers at Trinitek, whom, according to multi-brand accounts (and my above experience) by technically competent, but also, in my ...
