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

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

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]

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

What m43 body to get with a budget of 300$, and i already have a gm1? i might sell the gm1 later but wanted to try a later camera better specs but not as small

Early Olympus with 2 or 3 axis IS yes. But don’t know of any ongoing issues with 5 axis models. Lens compatibility isn’t really an issue, more to do with extra features. Aperture rings, clutch focus, sync IS etc. I agree it’s a bit rubbish but doesn’t affect most uses. I’d try out an E-M10 IV which

Amateur birder getting into photography

I second this! I also recently got into birding and then just purchased a camera. As a total beginner I got the OM-D E-M10 mark iv body paired with the Olympus 75-300mm II 4.8-6.7 M.Zuiko Lens used. It's definitely an entry level body and lens but I love it. I particularly appreciate that the zoom l
