om_system_om1OM System OM-1

Pros: Solidity, lightness and dimensions even with bg, pro capture with non-jpeg raw files like the other top of the range, price.

Cons: High ISO sealing, so-so tracking

Opinion: Necessary premise: I am absolutely convinced that there is no perfect camera or a perfect lens in the world but that there are different combinations that turn out to be perfect in different situations and OM1 combined with a pro series lens falls into these cases. If you know that the high ISO performance in low light is rather dismal and you know that the depth of field with the m 4/3 system is what it is, adjust accordingly. That said, OM1 remains my first choice (I own Z8) in wildlife photography for the very simple fact that it sizes, lightness, pro capture that makes raw files (The Z8, Jpeg), stabilization and color rendition, etc.. they allow "that AGILITY" and those results that other systems, perhaps more emblazoned, perhaps more fashionable, etc.. Due to their size and weight, they limit the work to be done, making the result more difficult to achieve. OM1-BG-mc20-40/150 2.8 (FF 160-600 5.6) weighs 2160 gr and has a total length of 30 cm. You carry it around all day and you could say absurdly that you put it in your pocket when you're done. My basic settings are to lock the iso limit to 800 and shoot at custom white balance aperture priority. When shooting raw, the photo mode is of little use, but it's basically natural. In post I clean with dxo and then finish in photoshop. I don't bother with the m 4/3 system as others do because I'm not interested in analyzing the details or all those aspects that in the end are completely irrelevant and that only serve to cheer for one or the other, so I just say that if you are aware of what you have in your hand and you know it well, you bring home the results. Greetings to all

olympus_40-150_f2-8Olympus M.Zuiko ED 40-150mm f/2.8 Pro

Pros: Size, Sharpness, Manual Focus Ring

Cons: I don't know

Opinion: A few months ago in the micro 4/3 world I bought this lens coupled with an OM1. The mere fact that it's an 80 300 2.8 certainly makes it exceptionally versatile considering the weight makes it nothing short of fantastic. (I have a Z8 a 300 2.8.. heavy material I have!!) Here you get to the end of the day and you can work freehand without feeling tired, etc. A few days ago I coupled the lens to a mc 20 (2x) multiplier. Incredible to note that it loses very little in sharpness; I'd say it's better with the 2x than with the 1.4x. Excellent color rendering if used with the OM1 (with other models I don't know). No problem in the rain and snow. After 30 years of photography, optics, etc., I have to say that currently this gem is the best lens I have ever had, also considering the really low cost.
