My favourite (I have three) is the National Geographic Earth Explorer Backpack. It's by no mean the perfect camera bag but I don't think there is such a thing. I still live in hope though. I like...

Brilliant! There are some very picky comments. I'd be overjoyed with any one of those shots but what do I know. I had just about weened myself off the desire for the 300mm. But this has rekindled...

I use the mysets for radically different shooting modes. However, I wish Olympus allowed one to give the mysets meaningful descriptions. My memory just isn't that good.

Nothing whatever to do with 4/3 but I thought some of you might be interested. Went to run some my old super 8 movies through the projector with a view of having them digitised. The rewind spool...

OMG, you have totally turned me off scanning. At least with cameras we have DOF and focus stacking if necessary plus it's all done in one click. But, yes, large format film is something else. ...

I'll tell you what I ordered but I won't how well it works till I try it. I ordered the Polaroid slide copier, Kaiser film strip holder, a 28mm (52mm dia) extension tube, a 46-5mm step-up ring. ...

Lightroom Solutions http://lightroomsolutions.com/ is a web site operated by John Beardsworth. I've been in contact with John. He has just launched a Fuji plugin to allow Fuji camera profiles to be...

That's curious because other research I've done indicates that camera copying is quicker. A camera does 16MP in a fraction of a second. A flat bed scanner might do a number of slides in one go but...

Yes, there are way too many non-intuitive interrelationships between functions. One wonders if these are logical or just software bugs.

That's certainly an option. However, the ES-1 is designed for use with Nikon's 55mm and 60mm macro lenses so I'll probably need an extension to use it with the m4/3 60mm. I have ideas of how I can...

Perhaps the shutter is opening but taking a long time to close because of the low light entering the pinhole.

Has anyone worked out a good way of digitising slides using the 60mm f2.8 macro? There a number of relatively cheap units available but they all seem to designed with the Nikon 60mm macro or...

You might want to regularly check the tightness of the four screws holding on the metal mounting flange on the camera.

Of course I love the weight saving but despite not having particularly large hands, I do find the E-M1 not comfortable. My little finger on the right hand invariably slides under the camera and my...

I went from the E3 to the E-M1. It was a quantum leap. Actually I love the EVF. It does so much more once you get used to it.

Anything that is easier to use than Oly's IO.Share is most welcome.

Yes, I guess that's all one can do. What I was leading to was that the one size fits all hyperfocal method of shooting seems to be out of favour. I suppose it's not surprising with the accuracy of...

If you click the slider icon in the top right you'll find the option to change units.

I just found a great little DOF app for Android, "HyperFocal". Unlike other apps, it's clear to read and easy to use. I was about to go out for a walk around then realised my 12-40mm f2.8 PRO...

I use the Lee 100mm system but I understand their newer Seven5 system may suit m4/3 better. I'm happy with it. Quality is high which it should be considering the cost of the lens it sits in front...

Unfortunately for me, dehaze is one of the goodies they are deliberately keeping from stand alone LR users. Nevertheless, I'm enjoying the lower cost and in any case I don't have the bandwidth for...

Your Moon shot is amazingly sharp. I like the shot of the space station too. Clearly they had switched on their clocking device :). Coincidently, as a kid, I spent some months in winter in a...

Thanks Daniel. I often see amazing amateur astro pics so I figured it wouldn't be so hard. I was just blown away with the difficultly. I don't understand why something millions of kms away should...

My first attempt at astro-photography. I was out camping and Venus looked particularly nice so I put the E-M1 + 50-200mm on the tripod. I found it incredibly difficult to focus. Even the slight...

Sorry, can't really explain. We know that APS-C was originally a compromise to allow Canikon users to continue using their huge livery of FF lenses. Then Oly came along with a fully bottom up no...
