OM-1

I have owned a camera from almost every system being produced but I always find myself drawn back to Olympus M43 cameras. I have a Fujifilm XH2S but I seem to prefer my Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III, to the point that I'm seriously considering selling my Fuji kit to get an OM-1. It's so sad how Olympus

OM isn't 'the poorest system' for landscapes. That's a narrow mindset of the uninformed (usually FF shooters who've never used M43 and go by specs). It's extremely difficult to tell the difference between 11 or 12 stops in a print (for example). The difference is more in the operator than the gear.

My simple answer is* you can buy better cameras, but in for the things m43 is particularly good at - only for more money* m43 works really well for most things, but other systems work better for some* m43 weakest points vs full frame cameras are high-iso noise and dynamic range – but it is still perfe

I mostly shoot with Fuji these days, but for a long time was an Olympus shooter in the 4/3 days and still have a GX85 that I like. I really like m4/3. I've used full frame cameras. There are clear benefits to the various systems, but the differences are not always as great as some may believe. The e

My camera is the OM-1 Mark ii and the lens was OM System 90mm 1:3.5 MACRO IS PRO. It’s my favorite bug camera! I also use an Olympus bellows lens and a laowa macro lens for my other photos. I have some of my shots on my photography page on instagram ( @Violetsandlenses ) if you’d like to check them

I think modern OM system stuff is meant to be pretty fine. There's not been a huge amount of development across M43 sensors though. The OM1 and Lumix G9 both seem pretty great for their markets tbf

I truly hope—pray, even—that OM System’s next release won’t just be another rehash like the OM-1 Mark II. That camera, while fine on paper, was essentially a software update sold at full price, and it left many of us deeply disillusioned. I’m starting to lose hope in the brand. I’ve been using the E

The 12-100 is a superb lens which really has no weaknesses, except that it is a largeish lens for the MFT system. I love mine, and it is my go-to lens in most situations. My go bag has two bodies: an OM-1 with the 300 f/4 PRO and an OM-1 II with the 12-100.

I would look into acquiring on OM System OM1 mk1, either new or used. It should be way cheaper than an OM3 and has better build quality. Check the stats and compare with what you need. If you like the OM m43 ecosystem, you can't go wrong with at least exploring this option. I got mine about 3 years

I personally don't really care what APSC or Full Frame is up to, they'll always feel lackluster to me in terms of tech. I love my Micro Four Thirds cameras, all of them. The OM-1 Mark II, OM-3, and OM-5 Mark II, and until any other manufacture makes a camera with half as much computational tech as a
