Just curious, Have you tried the dot sight? It is claimed to be designed to help just this scenario. Thanks

The set together is more impressive than any one: "Nautical Patterns", perhaps. I liked 2, 4, and 6 best. Every shot highlights the "not really the same" repetitions. Thanks.

I had thought that the dominate noise source was "shot noise" which comes from the fact that light arrives in discrete photons with a probability of generating some number of electrons in the ...

The F-stop universally determines the amount of light per unit area. What this means is that a FF camera with 4 times the pixels of an mFT camera would have the same shot noise per pixel. If the...

Late last week, I installed win7 onto a clean Netbook, using do Clean Install. The install requested drivers--and let me change the DVD for one I generated with all the Win 7 drivers for the ...

I bought my replacement from Amazon some time ago. Had to buy a bunch because it was the same price as one. Mine now has a level--which is cute, and sometimes useful. Fits better, too. GetOlympus ...

I am now hopeful that I can turn the screen in and just use the EVF for casual chimping. For me, this is rare, but occasionally useful. In fact, EVF for everything is a worthy goal, but only if ...

A very interesting observation. Thank you for doing this research. In my case, the drop in forum use is partly determined by a need to spend more time processing the thousands of photos it has ...

Looking at this thread, I can assume you are not an expert on either PC's or Lightroom. You got some very good advice early on: buy a system that is already working with some guarantee it will be ...

I now travel with a Surface 3 (or Surface 4). The size would seem to fit your needs, as does the functionality. If weight is a major consideration, an external battery is probably a bad idea. The ...

Hi, I have had the same problem twice. The spin wheel fast trick did not work for me--made things worse. Both times, sent the camera back to Olympus via the camera store where I got it. Took 6 ...

I would like to have two MFT bodies, and have held off so far. Same battery would be very nice. I hope Olympus moves to a FinFET process (like TSMC's latest) for the processor. This, plus some real ...

Consider getting Olympus to fix the body. My most recent replacement of the rear wheel seems to have taken--and the replacement/repair feels better than the old wheel ever did. An E-M1 with a ...

You can certainly get the images you want. I have made the Alaska trip and have been using mFT gear for a while. I have not used Panny gear, so will focus on Olympus based gear. My suggestions: 1. ...

I had posted above about processing differences and both in-camera and in-Lightroom processing choices (and the weakness of Lightroom's default for Olympus orf). You could use the default Leica and ...

Agree, it is a messy process. Getting the "best" default import processing for your camera is, to me, part of learning how to use Lightroom. I have been pretty unhappy with the Lightroom default ...

I have found the Lightroom default sharpening and noise processing for .orf files is too low, generally. I do not believe the default has been tuned as carefully as that for more "popular" cameras ...

Looks to be like the colors are more saturated with the Leica. Were you shooting JPEG? You can change how the image is processed (shows up in RAW as well) in the EM-1 using Image Mode settings to ...

I voted "no preference" because it will not influence my choice. I believe I have been using the tilt-only screen more often on my OMD E-M1 than the fully-articulated screen on my Olympus FT E-5. ...

Am I the only one who's first impression was that this was shot straight up into a starry sky (with odd nebula) by someone lying on their back with their feet up using a flash?  OK, the title  ...
