Fun with the Olympus OMD

[jonoslack]

Hi Jono...first....thanks a million for helping to save my life..from you to Jeremy and on to my Daughter!!!

My question about the seating arrangement in your very homey kitch is...as the dog has your chair...who used the basket??:deadhorse:

BILL!​

So great to have you back. I hope you're completely recovered?

I couldn't remember what your hotel was called. But I did remember what it looked like and where it was. So thanks should go to google for street view!

It was sad to miss you, but so great to see Jeremy's picture of you looking better. He has very kindly been keeping us up to date on your progress.

As for the chair. That's the dogs chair. I don't have time to sit down!

Emma sends her best wishes. And so do I

All the very very best wishes

Excellent David . .
focus is interesting though - sometimes it's easiest to use the 'touch screen shutter' for macro - it really does focus quick, and of course, as soon as it's latched on it takes the shot.

I wonder how effective engaging C-AF would be, if at all...?

Hey the Panny 25mm F1.4 seems like a good lens.

can't wait to try it out on the streets.

OM-D was used.

I haven't tried it with macro - I have often used it in the past - good for swaying plants, swaying photographer etc. Certainly worth a try.


However Even for subjects where you would imagine it was a good idea (surfers / sports) I still find that S-AF works much better - it's so fast, and there's so little shutter lag, that I've found it better to get in the right area - track the subject and then mash the shutter - good results - C-AF = bad results

I just found this from a week or so back - shot with the 80-200 f4 R zoom:

Okay, I'll bite: what kind of imagery does it produce ?

Or is it a disguised grenade launcher ?


All the best.

Here is a sample. It was rather difficult to hand hold...

Bob -

I like the first one best although the rust makes me skeptical of "domestic water" label.

I too wondered if it was water for the domestic staff? Or non-Import?
