G9II vs. LUMIX S5IIX stabilization tests
A double review of the image stabilization performance!
A double review of the image stabilization performance!
Micro Four Nerds made a list of lenses that are making the MFT system very unique. Do you agree with her list?
DigitalCameraWorld published the full OM-1II review and concluded:
It’s hard to fault the OM System OM-1 Mark II. Yes, it’s similar to its predecessor, but the differences are huge ones – including one that’s so significant, I wish every camera had it. In my opinion, this is the ultimate outdoor camera: it’s astonishingly weather-proofed, its compactness is unparalleled, it negates the need for both ND filters and grads, it matches full frame sensors for ISO noise and actually beats them for dynamic range, the improved autofocus is super-reliable even for birding, and the 2x crop factor is a secret weapon for wildlife.
This is what write James Artaius wrote about the OM-1II. It’s clearly he fell really enjoyed shooting with this camera!

I’m the first to admit this obsession is illogical, BUT MY HEART SAYS OTHERWISE! 😁
I just wanted to sit down and share with you all my growing four thirds lens and camera collection, and talk about what it means to me. On paper it really doesn’t make sense, and I wouldn’t point many people this direction for starters… but man, the lenses and cameras really are beautiful and fun to use.
Personal note: I would like OM Digital to remake the f/2.0 zooms in MFT version!

I don’t do a lot of night street shooting, mainly because it rains a lot in the evenings, and usually by the end of long shoot days, or even making videos on YouTube, I just get so exhausted. I shall try to make an effort to do more night shooting, here is a POV style street shooting with the tiny but mighty Lumix GM1!
Bill Claff posted his Dynamic range measurements. And the OM-1II slightly outperforms the OM-1 at lower ISO.
