Fun with the Olympus E-M1

[Massimo Foti]

Ah, would that be a Leopard tank? Excellent capture....little hard to make a rug out of it though.

It's an original Swiss designed tank, called Pz 68. Dimensions are very similar to the Leopard, the gun is the same (a British design). It also mounts a German, MTU diesel engine.

Took the kids to the zoo today, brought my new Pano 100-300

A proper 'analogue' car :thumbup:

hi Ian, "elderly" indeed! A great car and the fore runner of the Jaguar car both being designed and built by William Lyons of Swallow Sidecars. He was later to become Sir William Lyons, the firm still making very high quality luxury performance cars at remarkable value. This was the very hallmark of Swallow Sidecars built for attaching to motorcycles.

A great shot too of the SS badge, not to be confused with the Nazi regiment with the same initials!

mmbma, really love your bird shot with the pano 100-300. I got one too now, here is my effort with it.





The panny 100-300 is really quite sharp at 300mm even wide open 5.6

Dresden's Zoo with Oly 12-40. I wish I had a longer lens, but I decided to wait for the 40-150 f/2.8:

lovely shot, just wondering when I look at the original file in flickr, the image seems rather noisy for ISO 200. Did you add noise grain to the image?

I think that's Flickr.com's scaling stuff at work. I notice the same thing with my own photos ... they're sharper and less noisy here than on Flickr because I always grab the BBCode link for my original upload, never any of the rendered sizes.

impressive poster shot JMaher. Love the exact focus on the eyes. I think I may have to swap my 75mm f1.8 back to the 12-40

Most likely it was caused by excessive post-processing on my side.

The duck does not, it scales beautifully. Lovely shot, by the way.

According to your EXIF data, it's a very large original posted. That may have something to do with it. I typically post a maximum of 1200x1200 pixels now (up from my older standard web sizing ...)

The 75 1.8 is an excellent lens. However the 12-40 is also excellent and the focal range is more useful to me most of the time.

Thanks for the positive comment.
