OM-D E-M10 Mark IV

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

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

If you’re ready to move beyond smartphone photography and take more control over your images, a mirrorless camera is the best place to start. These cameras offer outstanding image quality, fast performance, and more creative flexibility in a compact, travel-friendly design.

I obviously had no idea what I was talking about, especially that I would probably use the camera for years and can’t just get an upgra

So I'm trading up from an almost twenty year old digital camera (well, and a cameraphone). I'm looking to get back into photography as a hobby after time away. Mostly looking to do urban images with some nature work when the opportunity arises. Long-time amateur but someone who wants to learn more.
