OM-1

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.

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

At equal light gathering for a given FOV, lens sizes will be pretty similar, with a slight weight/size advantage to crop sensors. FF has more large lens options that gather more light for a given FOV. M43 has more compact lens options that gather less light for a given FOV. ------------ When systems

Thanks for confirming. This MkII is really what the original OM-5 should have been. Updated menus and USB-C. Slightly different body. I don't mind the plastic as I have an existing OM-5 Mk I and it's fine for me. I don't do a lot of tri-pod or capture clip use, though I do have that installed along

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

I’ve had Fuji, Sony FF, APSC as well as Olympus/om cameras which I currently use. For me I really enjoy the lighter weight, ergonomics, ruggedness of OM and the quality of the output is completely acceptable for what I do with the cameras. The downside of m43 being MUCH less actively developed in th

I'll start this off by clarifying I only have experience with Sony & Olympus / OM systems. I've tried to use the Sony A6700 and the Sony 90mm for handheld insect macro photography and eventually gave up. The sensor readout time and buffer were too slow for my style of photography. I ended up going w

Every format is a combination of trade offs. For example, you won’t find a bright standard zoom the size of Panasonic 12-35mm in any system. On the other hand, if you’re OK with f/2.8 on Micro 4/3, then an f/4 zoom on a full frame camera should be more than perfectly acceptable. A Nikon Z5 (or Z5 II

This again… Everyone says “there’s no new tech in m43 bodies”. What new tech is needed? Leading edge computational features have been a part of m43 for years. We have image pre-capture on even the lowest tier camera bodies for years, something that only recently appeared on LUMIX FF and flagships. T
