Based on what I see in your Pbase galleries, I would recommend getting the E-M1 Mkll and a clean used 12-40mm. Your photographic skill is obviously advanced and I would think you will be able to ...

My video button is dedicated to toggle my DTC on and off. I have a folder on my hard drive that has about 5 poorly done video clips. :-)

Unfortunately, the only TTL flash that will synch @ 1/320 Sec on the E-M1 is the clip on flash FL-LM2. All other TTL flashes (to my knowledge) drop the synch speed to 1/250 sec. A way around this ...

Yes, I was referring to the Digital Teleconverter. Here is a link to a very interesting article comparing the DTC with the quality of a post process crop from a RAW file: http://www.thewanderinglen ...

Sounds potentially like shutter failure -- let's hope not. If so, it would probably be worth getting repaired if your camera is in otherwise good shape.

I did this test shots a little over 4 years ago, when I got my first E-M1. These are out of camera Jpegs with Noise Filter set to 'Low'. Nothing but Levels adjusted on these. There's not a lot of ...

Well, my processing work flow is extremely basic -- Shoot LSF Jpeg, Camera set to 'Low' Noise Filter setting, Sharpen as needed with Focus Magic. Pretty uncomplicated. :-)

Just for the record Tommi, I shot the owl photo I posted using the DTC -- so yes, it is a 50% crop. :-)

I don't have any concerns about shooting at ISO 6400.

I do shoot professionally, and I can tell you that for me this is a no-contest. The 35-100mm would win hands down. People here can say what they want, but clients are interested in shots that ...

Unfortunately, you will ultimately need to send it to Olympus for repair. The E-M1 is a great camera, but this is one true manufacturing defect and Olympus should be willing to fix it at their ...

Thanks. That's a close up of 'Harriet' our resident back yard Eastern Screech Owl from last Spring. She and her mate 'Ozzie' had three owlets. Once the owlets fledged they hung around in our huge ...

I would not call this soft at the long end, and wide open to boot :-):

Nice job, but I agree with the other poster -- a bit too underexposed looking to me. Also, you need to get rid of that bright eye brow in the second image -- it's very distracting.

It's a nice feature for sure. Mirrorless cameras have had this feature for years. My Olympus E-M1 also had a built-in Keystone Adjustment -- a great time saver for real estate shooting.

You have my heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your dog. That is always a very tough thing to deal with -- they are such sweet animals. I pray that you can focus on the good times you had with ...

That's a pretty accurate and objective analysis, Chris. I absolutely agree with your comment about the investment in telephoto glass. I have long felt that it is one of the primary reasons Canon ...

Thanks for the comment. The Dual IS won't do me much good though since I shoot Olympus bodies, but then, you never know down the road. :-)

I love Focus Magic, and have used it for many years. It has paid for itself, over and over again by saving client images that were a little soft due to motion blur or slightly bad focus.

Maybe you need a refresher, by re-reading your website intro page. :-) Gloriography, I love it. You and I share the same Spirit. I enjoy my photography, but never lose sight of the fact that the ...
