CP Menus & Functions Cons: Power button and articulating display Opinion: It's my first OM, After a few months with the Lumix GX80 I decided to try more deeply the micro 4/3 olympus-OM system. My main kit is Sony FF, and I found a lot of pleasant things as they are making me appreciate the system. The machine is very pleasant to hold, and the buttons on the back have very good pressure feedback. The machine's menu seems to me to be very well done with some small tricks that are pleasing and make it clear that it has been done with logic (for example, if you save an item in my menu, when you scroll through the menu a number appears next to mymenu, which indicates how many items have been saved in my menu in the specific submenu we are in at that moment). Very good af and really responsive shooting. Again, coming from Sony FF, the feedback of the shot is excellent. Much quieter and "softer" than a sony of the A7 series. The only defect is the power button on the left. You can set the stick on the right as the power button and this mitigates the problem a lot, the fact remains that it remains something more inconvenient and different than turning on a car with the usual power lever that is positioned under the shutter button (like Sony, Fuji and I assume almost all the others). I haven't tried the OM5 mk1, but in my opinion this is a great camera, which takes care of the matter and doesn't need many other additions to get out of the house and go photographing! It has many interesting and convenient functions, such as focus stacking: it is true that it is a function that many cameras have now, but here in addition to creating the raw files of each shot you will also have a jpeg file ready, so you can immediately check if the focus planes are correct. I really like the quality of the files, even the malleability in post production I find excellent. It doesn't deserve the criticism it has received, absolutely, just as the micro 4/3 system should be pushed more because it is currently poorly understood by most photographers. But it must also be said that OM is wrong in positioning this machine. It is not only valid for outdoors, travel and landscapes. This is also an excellent camera for the Street, mounting a fixed lens like the 17mm it becomes very compact, silent and pleasant to hold around the neck. I tried it intensively in street photography in London (some HD photos are present in my juza gallery dedicated to London), I came home with more conviction to devote more time and resources to the micro 4/3 OM System. sent on October 19, 2025 |
 | Samyang FE 35mm f/2.8 AF Pros: Size, Weight, Image quality in the type of photograph for which it was designed Cons: Considering the type of use I would say nothing. Opinion: I pretty much said it all about pros and cons. I believe that when we talk about this lens we must evaluate it according to its use. it is clear that it cannot be used in portraits of a certain level. Equally clear is the fact that it is not a suitable optics for sport. This is a perspective dedicated to street and reportage. Mounted in an a7 it seems to have a fuji x100f in your hand as it is small. Put around the neck you can go around the city or you can take it on a trip without ever feeling the weight. It will also give very little in the eye so you can shoot much more easily without the subject noticing. Personally I always carry it behind, together with the 24mm f2.8 (which unfortunately I sold) they make a fantastic travel-street pair. I took a trip to Tokyo and shooting all day with these optics around my neck was really enjoyable. I also used it in some weddings, clearly for fun during lunch and it was just as pleasant allowing me to take home absolutely usable photos. Among other things, the image quality is good, so much so that printed there will be no great differences with more expensive optics. The hood is small, it mounts very well and above all makes the lens even more anonymous because it covers most of the writings on the front. In short, if you are looking for a light, cheap, small but quality lens for reportage and travel, this is the perfect one. sent on October 08, 2021 |
