Beginner friendly camera

can't go wrong with the em10 series as a beginner, it's literally what it's meant for. As a beginner you probably won't be shooting super fast sports or jittery birds ( at least right away ) so CDAF with AFS is more than enough for static or semi-static subjects. That being said, I'm very biased tow

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV lens recommendations for concerts?

Unfortunately you're trying to use the most basic of Olympus's cameras to tackle one of the most challenging scenarios for any camera. The biggest weakness of any MFT camera is low light performance. That's not to say they're BAD at it, they're just weaker at it than cameras with larger sensors like

Quite disappointed with olympus. I seem to be having a much more negative experience than most

That is so disappointing. You have a new (to you) camera and it is failing at its most basic task. The Olympus line split into two customers: Average consumers or beginning photographers Serious amateurs and professionals For the serious photographers who depended on their equipment, there were the

My first M43, pls help.

That of course will be a matter of opinion. But the general trend in the last 5 years has been away from the classic M43 compact style and toward bigger bodies with more capable sensors, cpus, and batteries. There are two that I can think of currently in production, and then I can think of two more

Replacing olympus pen lite E-PL 7

I agree with u/swifthide - the E-P7, while actually weighing a fraction less than the E-PL7, is a huge step up in every way, while maintaining the same size and profile of the older camera. (Note - all M43 lenses from Olympus/OM System and Panasonic fit all M43 cameras.) The "P" stands for "PEN", wh

Friend recommended an M43 as a solid first camera for me. And while it’s only been a week, I would do unspeakable things if anything ever happened to it [OLYMPUS OM-D E-M10 Mark IV + 12-40mm F2.8 Pro]

Beginner friendly camera

why do you want a 'beginner friendly' camera? In my opinion , that's just vendor-speak for 'cheap' because they're lacking in features/capability. If you're really interested in photography its better to go for a used/older but more feature rich mid-range or "prosumer" camera than a brand new but ex

What's the best bang for your buck, small m43 camera

The Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV is currently an excellent value purchase ($599 In the states), but the GX9, Gx85 and OM5 have some really useful features. I use a GX1 and OM-D E-M10 Mark ii on trips.

Beginner camera for street + nature

I 100% agree with the MFT route! Cameras like the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV or Lumix GX85 are perfect for this use case. The bodies and lenses are super compact, so hindi nakakahiya o nakaka-intimidate ilabas for street photography. At the same time, you have the flexibility to swap to a telephoto
