Nice composition!  Is that Solomon's Seal, Columbine and Sweet Woodruff in one garden? The Solomon's seal around me peaked a few weeks ago. I also use my older four thirds lenses with my mFT body.  ...

I have an old Olympus twin flash bracket and use it with two Olympus wireless FL36R flashes for macro: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/607526-REG/Olympus_260121_FL_BKM03_Twin_Flash_Bracket.html

I posted the jpeg. I also get a raw file but haven’t found it to be better than the jpeg, just a lot bigger! CDC

Phil: thank you so much for sharing your results and especially your methods.  Lately, I have been getting good results using the hand held high resolution feature on the Olympus EM1x.  I get a ...

Ethan: Thanks for the link to your web site.  Your work is inspiring and amazing.  Well done.  I will definitely be following your progress. I have been enjoying the emergence of dragonflies and am ...

BTW, thanks for the compliments on my dragonfly images! CDC

I can only recommend the 4/3 rd mount lens for a PDAF capable MFT camera using the MMF adapter. I cannot confirm how well focus and aperture control of other mounts with an adapter would work. KEH ...

It is a wonderful lens!

Sorry about the shipping cost to NZ. The lens I was referring to is at their regular store and is excellent condition: https://www.keh.com/shop/sigma-150mm-f-2-8-apo-ex-macro-dg-hsm-autofocus-lens- ...

KEH has one now. CDC

The Sigma is in the old original Olympus 4/3rds mount.  On the EM1x, all the autofocus and aperture features work perfectly.  The lens does not support focus bracketing or in-camera focus stacking. ...

Here's another arena in which hand-held high resolution (HHHR) shines: Low light macro. I often use HHHR for static subjects, like resting dragonflies, using high F-stops to achieve depth of field ...

I have found that one really needs at least 100mm with macro (1:1) close focus capability using the MFT cameras.  Unfortunately, Olympus never released any macro lenses longer than the 60mm ...

Youxin Ye did a great job on my Leica IIIf but I do not know if he handles other camera brands: http://www.yyecamera.com/ CDC

Quite true and good points. So far I like the live ND feature for stills and I hope it gets even better. I will be holding onto my old fashioned ND filters as well. CDC

“Use ND filters only when nothing else will do” great advice. I routinely use HDR, exposure blending and the new Olympus ND filter features. My old fashioned ND filters come out only rarely these days!

Try reprogramming the back buttons in both orientations.  I know the placement of the focus point in the frame can be set to be linked to the orientation sensor.  Perhaps the function of the back ...

KEH is reliable. I have had mixed luck on lenses on eBay. Fungus can be a real problem.

All: The rather hard to find but wonderful 4/3rds mount (not micro 4/3rds) Sigma 150mm, F2.8 macro is available on Keh for a decent price: https://www.keh.com/shop/93084.html I have this lens and ...

Travis thank you for this update!!
