It's hard to tell when shooting a rounded subject. Suggest shooting text taped or pressed onto a flat surface to do a fair test. Dick

Some of the cheaper tubes have a very smooth black interior than may cause some internal flaring and some lose of contrast. One solution is to scratch up the smooth surface with some steel wool or ...

In the mid to late 90s I did a lot of dragonfly, butterfly and insect photography using my OM-1, OM-2 and OM-4 film cameras with my Olympus 350 mm f2.8 lens with both it's matched 1.4x and 2x ...

The lever modes for the E-M1 MII have been changed from those available on the E-M5 MII so I don't your suggestion will work. You can set the S / C / M to 3 /4/3 to get back button focusing and ...

Yes you will lose a bunch of other setting. Use the Olympus Viewer 3 software to save out a copy of your current settings so you can easily get back to them after play time. Dick

Walter, I don't think so. I just went through this with Linda and we couldn't find a way to do it without using C1, C2 or C3. Dick

I've done three day time lapses with my E-M5 Mark II by turning all the sleep and dimming times to their minimum values. Turn on Quick Sleep mode. Turn in the flipping rear screen to face the ...

Also in the last image, I don't think cigars made it to Europe in the Middle Ages and that's probably also goes for the can in his hand. Dick

I've tried attaching my small Tascam recorder directly to the hot shoe of my E-M5 Mark I and II. The recorder picks up all of the camera noises. I still haven't found a suitable rubber mount to ...

It works on the E-M5 MII. Dick

Yes the compression only applies to the jpegs. The Large Super Fine gets compressed less ( 2.7). Dick

Live Boost is trying to brighten the overall scene to an overall mid gray thus greatly overexposing the dancers. I recommend turning off live boost except when shooting with studio strobes in a ...

Are you using the E-M5 Mark I or the Mark II? Are you shooting with the FL600r mounted directly on the camera's hot shoe or are you shooting with it off camera? Set the camera to Manual mode with ...

In my experience I think the camera always picks the nearest contrasty face. Dick

I would recommend shooting more frames (in the 30 - 40 range) with a low interval (2-3) and a more wide open f stop (if available). Dick

This won't help with the E-M1 Mark I but with the E-M5 Mark II when you close the flippy back screen so it face the camera body, then the Menu shows in the EVF. Dick

I feed the signal from the camera to a screen capture device which then saves the signal as a video. My resolution is only 720x480 for the video but that is good enough for screen shots for ...

The resolution of the 350 f2.8 with its matched 1.4x and 2x converters is very impressive. It's one of the best lenses Olympus ever made. Dick

I use my 1.4x and 2x teleconverters (often stacked together) on my Olympus OM 350 mm f2.8 film lens with my E-M5 Mark I and II to get insane magnifications. Dick

I get some purple fringing and CA with the 14-150 mm lens but it is easily removed in Lightroom. Dick
