Fun with the Olympus OMD

Someone mentioned the Fuji X-Pro 1 thread having more 'wow' images... Judging by the last few here, it look like the tables are turning! :clap:

Thanks everyone, it looks like you are getting inspired. :thumbs:

Here are three homely shots trying out the new 9-18

Fun shots, Jono. I liked the 9-18 when I had it. I just didn't go wider than 12 enough to justify keeping it next to the 12. But sometimes I miss the compact UWA fun it provides.

Hi There
I'm slightly wondering if I shouldn't have bitten the bullet and bought the 7-14 (there's still time to change my mind!).

It seems to do a decent job though

PS - particularly liked the last shot of your group.

all the best

Oh my, look what just one extra 1mm gets you (and this is a little cropped) :ROTFL::ROTFL::ROTFL::ROTFL: shot at 8mm from the 7-14

At the time, the biggest advantage of the 9-18 to me was the small size. Next to that I really liked the range (just like I really liked the 11-22 on my E-1). For someone who likes to explore going wider, the 7-14 seems to be ideal though.

Trying macro for the first time today, just to see what the fuss is all about :) My back and arms were quite strained from trying to stay still so I don't lose focus!

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.

ok, nice photo, but damn, what a great comfy looking kitchen dining area...yeah, the lens, blablabla...it works pretty good :toocool:
Thank you! - we love it - Emma is the architect of the funky slightly out of order look ( she can be seen getting something out of the cupboard). My middle son Sim and I are guilty of the floor, the units and the woodwork.

If you turn round 180 degrees you get this (which we didn't build)
(yeah - too much kit!)
