I have not evaluated the MC14+300mm focus performance yet. Based on my usage, I would expect it to fall somewhere between the 300mm and the MC20+300mm in focus performance. The major weakness of ...

Shutter shock is a problem with slower shutter speeds - typically below 1/160, the Olympus Electronic first curtain setting changes to straight mechanical shutter at 1/320 since there is ...

I wanted to do a focus comparison of the E-M1.3 with the 300mm f4 alone vs. the MC20+300mm. Since there were not enough swallows to do a good evaluation, I decided to use the Carpenter bees (3/4 ...

The lens firmware must be updated before it will recognize the MC20 (firmware 1.3).

Never photograph flying insects or flying hummingbirds with an electronic shutter.  There will be rolling shutter problems on a significant percentage of the images.  The mechanical shutter is ...

Well done. I would like to have your sky.  On most nights, Jupiter and Venus are likely to be visible, on others just the moon.

Mirrorless have improved significantly.  You should have no problems with most of the recent cameras.  You can always check DPR for user recommendations.

The only consistent problem was skipping on the rear dial.  When the dial was turned, it would not change the settings.  Most cameras probably had the rear dial replaced at some point. This did not ...

My comment was specific to the Electronic focus limiter.  I can set it to 8 to 20 feet and shoot hummingbirds feeding from flowers with a very high success rate.  Before the addition of a focus ...

Maybe not worth it to upgrade from the E-M1.2, but the Electronic Focus limiter alone makes it far better for sports or wildlife than the G9.  I would expect Panasonic to add a similar feature on ...

The flash will not work on Olympus cameras before the E-M5.2/E-M1.2.  It cannot work on any camera which does not provide power to the flash.  The previous hot shoe did not and could not be ...

Does that imply that users have no responsibility? Olympus specifically indicates, "The FL-LM3 is compatible with the OM-D E-M5 Mark II, OM-D E-M1 Mark II, OM-D E-M10 Mark II, OM-D E-M10 Mark III, ...

The floating walkway should have no impact on the sharpness of a 14mm focal length image at 1/400 on a dual stabilized camera/lens unless the walkway is moving very quickly.

Writing both RAW/jpegs should not affect the fps rate until the buffer fills - Imaging Resource (59 frames and 20 seconds to clear buffer) vs RAW only (102 frames and 7 seconds to clear buffer). ht ...
