I'm still here, but not photographing going on!
I still go out and about all by myself and shoot. People tend to.muck up a perfectly good photo anyway. ��
I just logged back in after YEARS! I am looking to purchase some 4/3s gear again. I tried everything else and LOVE the old school 4/3s
I enjoy reading all the posts, but a stroke left me with difficulty typing; so I seldom post any more even though I'm still visiting the website.
I look in from time to time, but there doesn't seem to be much going on. Should we try to resurrect this site?
My 4/3 cameras have now been retired to the Old Camera Museum in my lounge room and I am now using an Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mk III with an E-M1 Mk II as a backup camera. I have slowly been building up my collection of micro 4/3 lenses, mainly Olympus PRO lenses, although the new 150-400 mm will be totally out of my price range. The Olympus 100-400mm lens suits my needs very nicely. I haven't been getting out much to take photos. - Too much going on at work. But I am now on holiday until 18 Jan 2021 and so I'll hopefully get out to play.
I have just come aboard the Mary Celeste, adrift, no captain, no crew, spooky !
I see that your photos still haven't been approved. Marie Celeste? Possibly. Maybe the moderators are on holiday.
We’re here. No photos to authorize. Only one post with a link.
That link should be to a photograph on Flickr. I was talking Mark (Saggitarian) through posting a photo in the same way that I usually do and the photo appeared to come up in the preview. How should we post photos?
Edit: I was looking back at a series of posts that I made about the Olympus 4/3 12-60 mm SWD lens back in 2015 and notice that I started using this method of posting a link to Flickr as I felt that too much definition was being lost in decreasing the size of the photo so that it could be uploaded to this site. At least this way, if the viewer clicks on the image, they can be led through to the Flickr site and view the image at full uploaded resolution. It also places less load on this server.
I'm out. :down:
Cheers Mark. But at least we tried.
Evidently not very hard. I only saw the one pic in a link to Flickr.
Im coming back...again. I am starting to collect some 4/3s gear after christmas. Can't get away from it! I love the system, and just feel comfortable with it.
Welcome back.
thanks, are there many left here?
Seems like just a few pop in from time to time.
I'm here, doing my once a year pop-in, to see if there is still a pulse.Quote:

Agreed Pavel. I feel the same way.
