    New OM-1

    Agree with you, Niels. OM-1 is a great camera, it's a joy to use. I am always excited to make a BIF session since I have OM-1. The output of this camera it's a dream. Sometimes I did not even expect that the camera could make a good picture in a specific situation (ex : BIF) and then suprise ...

    New OM-1

    In the last week I had the chance to organize a shooting session to bee-eaters. OM-1 did very well. I got the best results with bee-eaters in flight. I tried the AF Limiter from the camera and I felt an improvment. I had the IS activated. I forgot to test with IS OFF. Maybe next time. Some...

    New OM-1

    @DrewskiMT Thank you ! Yes, OM-1 is a nice camera. And the 300mm lens is very performant. I guess Olympus 100-400mm could also provide nice results.

    New OM-1

    I used E-M1 Mark II for 6 years. A few months ago I upgraded to OM-1. I will post some impressions and pictures. Here are my findings about OM-1: OM-1 is a huge step ahead compared to the previous generations of Olympus cameras : the focus is much better (faster , more precise). it is easy...
