I will join the chorus suggesting starting with the P for program exposure mode. I will also suggest two Olympus downloads from their web site: A PDF version of the camera manual https://learnandsu ...

Many Canon label FL & FD mount lenses have a lever on the back that will stop the lens down to the aperture on the setting ring. Otherwise the lens is wide open. This was needed on bellows or ...

Some of your lenses will do dual IS on the G9- the in lens and in body stabilization working together. On an Oly body, you have a choice of either in lens or in body with Panasonic lenses. i would ...

Olympus and Panasonic introduced full function adapters as part of the transition from DSLR (4/3) to mirrorless (Micro 4/3) - the mount also gained a couple of pins.

This is the part where the relative merits of the hardware are biased by personal opinion :-) There is no reason to avoid the micro 4/3 format from your initial consideration. In capable hands it ...

"Professional level" refers more to the photographer than the equipment. In other words, it is unlikely that you will encounter hardware limitations before technique limitations [at least within ...

You may be seeing the wobble associated with the 'depth from defocus' feature. Were you in continuous or single shot mode?

As a luddite still using Aperture [gradually switching to ON1] the older generation has the advantage of backward compatibility

I also have a M10.2 - but it is not fully functional [tilt screen ribbon cable failure - cost more to repair than buy refurbished ]. Before the 10.2 body failed, GAS was pointing to acquiring new ...

Take a look in the “Buying Guides” section at the rop of the page.

Do you have a 'Time Machine' backup configured? I have three disks, with one always off site. There are also the utilities SuperDuper & Carbon Copy Cloner that let you copy entire disks, or ...

I still have & use my FZ-50
One of the things I like is the fixed length, internally zooming and focusing lens [mechanically coupled zoom]. While this is not sealed, there is no 'trombone effect'...

All things being equal [but they never are] I would recommend the FZ1000. While I have an EM10.2, with both the kit level 'R' lenses, I still use my ancient FZ-50, and would be more likely to ...

Check over on the adapted lens forum - apparently FD to EF adapters are problematic due to the need for optical elements. Also note that this lens lacks a stop down lock [found on many Canon FL & ...

Use the feature search under the 'cameras' tab at the top of the page. Clicking on microphone and headphone under video features yields 70 items. As was pointed out previously, this is an area / ...

I end not to reformat the card [in camera] until the second, off site, backup has completed.

More with reducing 'photographer induced motion - that's likely the reason Nikon calls it 'vibration reduction' Without image stabilization - with it I have long exposures [up to a second or so] ...

The old rule of thumb was to minimize the effects of camera shake [hand held] was to use a shutter speed close to 1/(focal length).  So, with my old Canon FTb and a 135 f/2.8 lens, I would try to ...

Placed 53^rd in the challenge. Interior of Winchester Cathedral, with a view past the choir stalls along the nave toward the main entrance. I don't think. the folding chairs in the foreground enhance the setting, but that's the way things were set up.
