A new PEN-F camera

A new PEN-F camera

Pieter OmvleeOct 17, 202418
The Olympus PEN-F is a small pocketable camera released in 2016 which, though I rarely use it anymore, I know I will never sell. Apparently, it’s a fan favourite too; its second-hand price is higher than what you’d expect for an 8-year-old camera, and every time OM-System releases something, inevitable comments turn to “Will they […]

I’ve had some concerns about the sharpness of the images from the Olympus. I felt there was a touch too much noise, adding an ever so slight but very annoying blur to the images. Although every other aspect of the camera is great, I was starting to doubt whether the…

Daniel StockerSep 27, 20171

Some time ago I made the switch from APS-C sized Fujifilm cameras to Olympus´s mFT System. Don´t get me wrong. Fujifilm cameras and lenses are really good, but for me the system is developing into a direction which is not for me. I am an ambitious amateur/hobbyist photographer and not…

Many may have heard of Hi-Res mode but probably few have used it. The most well-known characteristic of this feature is the absolutely incredible 80 Megapixel resolution that can be obtained from a 20MP sensor, but the list of benefits does not stop here. For those who wish to know…
