OM-3 for Video. Why not?

Resolution is a lot lower than what you get out of the 10bit mode. What happens is that for some reason the 8bit mode uses either a line skipped or pixel binned readout of the sensor, which leads to the video looking like barely 4K, having much worse dynamic range etc. The 10bit video uses an oversa

Birding: Should I upgrade my setup or switch over to Nikon?

Im birding with my E-M1 II and switched to the OM-D from a Nikon D750. I really love my Olympus lenses and the E-M1 II and won’t go back to the bigger systems. I use 4/3rds lenses exclusively to trade them with my E-5. The Olympus 50-200 f2.8-3.5 with an MMF-3 and EC-14 converter is unbeatable for p

E-M1 mark III or OM-1 as second large M43 body? Or keep the full frame side body?

Yeah I mean at the end of the day, it's mostly about enthusiats discussing about minor details about modern cameras. Realistically evey camera released since 2016 has only been a minor upgrade over the previous model. I feel this is especially true with Olympus / OM system going from the E-M1ii, to

Wildlife photography on M43 from 35mm

I see it this way. The OM-1 performs well up to between ISO 6400-ISO 12800, whereas the E-M1X (which I shoot) is good up to ISO 4000. Incidentally, my Z8 @ ISO 8000 has similar IQ as my 1X @ ISO 4000. Keeping this in mind, you can only use f/2.8 or even f/4 with full frame if you are shooting parall

What Best Budget Camera for Food Photography? Time for a Change.

I haven’t used a D8xx but a D750 and switched to an Olympus OM-D E-M1 II. The Ibis makes composing in food handheld so much easier, the high res mode gives me the resolution, when I want it and the bigger dog due to the smaller format is a big plus in my book for food and stilllife! When you search

Should i buy this camera?

I have the OM-D E-M1X. I Thought about this but i want better low light performance and dynamic range for portraits. I use my Olympus mainly for high speed sports cause of its IBIS and for wildlife cause of its reach. A 45mm on my olympus would be 90mm equivalent, which im jot sure is optimal as a p

E-M1X or OM-1 for Macro

OM-1 . If I remember correctly the E-M1X was a precursor to the E-M1 III. It's basically just a E-M1 III + grip with additional features optimized for wildlife shooting. The OM-1 is essentially an E-M1 IV. The OM-1 would have the latest features so that'd be the best camera to use to get the most mo

EM1X

The E-M1X is a beast. Performance wise, it sits pretty much in the middle between the E-M1 mark II and E-M1 mark III. All 3 have the same sensor, same burst rate, same video specs, etc however the E-M1X introduced hand held high res modes, which isn't present in the E-M1ii. It also has AI deep learn

Price of used OM-1 MK I 's are absurdly low / great bargain. Theories?

Sorry to hear you’re having a tough time selling the OM-1. It’s definitely a good time to buy used but not a good time to sell used. I picked up an OM-1 with 10k shutter and 3 lenses (12-40 pro mark ii, 75-300 mark ii, 60mm macro) two weeks back for $2400 CAD or $1715 USD. The camera came with the b
