OM-3

I have done a similar thing with my old E-M1 II once. Was on a trip in the jungle, dropped my camera with 12-40 mm Pro lens on it into the mud. Like, there was no way to get it off without rubbing it into all nooks and crannies. So I just grabbed my water bottle and washed the mud off the camera. Wo

Sorry if this had been brought up sufficiently as I don't have time to pour through all the replies, but I doubt if your camera is used. I know it wouldn't be if it were from OM System as they test their cameras in house for up to 1,000 shutter activations. My OM-3 came with 844 shots on it and my O

I would also think ahead if you’ll want to one day photograph your kids doing sports or activities, you already have the glass for it. I currently have an X100V and as awesome of a camera it is, it is not one camera to rule them all. It’s great for travel and everyday documenting but you have to be

Ha! Thats funny. In reality OM is, somehow, healthier than Panasonic (in m43 world that is). The CEO, an ex Olympus camera executive, just bought majority share from the investment group and now has total control. They also built an all new lens R&D/manufacturing plant months ago. They are now teasi

R8 is a base model full frame with minimal features, it lacks weather sealing, stabilization, and uses a small battery. It's main selling point is that it's a full frame but not much else going for it. OM-3 is a flagship level camera with IP rated weather sealing, 7.5 stops of IBIS with stabilized l

It depends what you want I guess. If you want to unlock all the capabilities of your camera and have a nice zoom, either the 12-40mm or 12-45mm make the most sense. The 12-40 in particular, this lens goes super well on the OM-1, and it unlocks all the features you would want (in camera focus stackin

I’m a few days into my ownership of an OM3. It’s my first M43 camera and I’m thoroughly impressed. I mostly shot Fuji since 2016 until I moved to a Nikon ZF a few years back. I had the X100VI and thankfully was able to flip it for no loss after a month. The AF on the X100VI, while better for Fuji st

Okay, so first of all, it seems you are pretty set on M43 / Olympus / OM System cameras. The first thing that you need to understand is that those cameras work with processor generations, and that some generations are super close, while other provide a generational leap. For example : True Pic VIII

Hey I have an OM3 and it was my first camera in the MFT ecosystem. Paired it with the excellent 12-40 f2.8 for really good weather sealing. I've been out in really heavy snow storms in Canada and Scandinavian rain without issues. Added the 40-150 f2.8 for action and now I'm looking at the 60mm macro

think you'd want something weathersealed for those locations, Fuji doesn make tough cameras imo https://www.mpb.com/en-us/product/om-system-om-5 https://www.mpb.com/en-us/search?q=Olympus%20M.Zuiko%2012-45mm%20f%2F4%20PRO https://www.mpb.com/en-us/product/om-system-m-zuiko-digital-ed-40-150mm-f-4-pr
