That's Olympus, not Olypmic.

... Joe Edelman's paid speaking presentations for Olympus from just a few months ago. Joe uses some humor but without the shtick he uses in his recent videos. He also employs Olympus Visionary ...

... but you can see how they denigrate the man and the system. He's a shill. - Nope. He got free stuff. - Nope. He talks with his hands. I can't sit through this. - He's enthusiastic and animated. ...

I am the forum member that originally posted Joe's video on the M4/3 forum. Since Edelman's video is from YouTube where he can view the comments, I thought it only right to let him know that I ...

After more than 40 Years of shooting Nikon and a couple years with Sony mirrorless portrait photographer Joe Edelman switched to micro 4/3 specifically E-M1 mk II. Now after 6 months of use, Joe ...

Most people that hire a wedding photographer have no idea about cameras with different sensor sizes. They see that the photographer's camera has big lenses, a big flash and lots of buttons and...

I've seen a few wedding/portrait photographers on YouTube that switched from FF and other systems to micro four thirds.

I agree with you that Oly doesn't blow Fuji out of the water on anything (maybe lens selection)... they are close.

I also agree with you on the Sony ergonomics. The Sonys that I've held (none of...

"All in all I say that smartphone cameras are for those who don't give a rat's a$$ about their pictures"

That would be most people with any cell phone camera. And for those on here...

Because most people's friends don't have the knowledge of a...

Nirurin:

As far as ergonomics go, this is subjective. For me (and Hogan) every button/dial falls in the right place for our hands with the E-M1 & E-M1 II. When I've handled Fuji's top cameras,...

Nirurin:

"Hmm. The 'variety' of lens choices might blow the Fuji out of the water, but certainly not the quality."

Couldn't agree with you less. Check out DPReview's Oly E-M1 II review. DPR said...

I've read Thom for many years and he has continued to use Olympus m4/3 cameras for his light kit alongside his heavier FF kit.

Matsu: Part 2

FWIW all of my Instagram photos are taken with a proper camera in RAW and edited although they have to be downsized and in the early days re-cropped and squared-off. Not one taken...

Matsu: Part 1

Will it get better? Yes

How much? Enough for some people and not enough for others.

It's like correcting lens distortion or CA. If such a lens is available for your system, you...

Well isn't all the digital photography... computational photography?

So what you're saying is, you expect Olympus and Panasonic to ignore the Innovations the cell phone companies are using and not attempt to incorporate these into their own cameras?

As the article pointed out, it will only get better with time.

Yes but you made those 24 exposures count! If you had a digital camera with a 64GB card you probably would have taken hundreds of unexceptional images along with the good ones.

This is all very true UNLESS you're using a camera with a tiny Four Thirds sensor. Then you couldn't possibly be a professional photographer; you couldn't possibly produce publication worthy...
