Why would you need both?But Jeff.... like me you can pair your G9 with a nice EM-1 mkII. Silver Lining...
Took the camera to the local park tonight, caught a sunset

I used DxO Optics pro to process and getting to like that program. They have a sale this month too so may upgrade.
Nice sunset caught at the 'right' moment
PS are you shooting raw? As I was reading somewhere that someone was doing a comparison between LR, Capture1 and DxO and that he concluded LR did not handle .ORF files that well compared to DxO.

If only I had the money spare .
fascinating - I prefer the Affinity one although the bee looks a little sharper and brighter on the DxO. Have you processed these or is this just how the raw files have rendered?Ok, temptation got the better of me, as usual, but here's a quick comparison (Was shot on the Canon )

unless of course it fries your camera electronics ,when in doubt leave it out !!!!A quick question - I have a Yongnuo trigger which works with my Canon for off camera flash. I'm wondering if I can try it on my Oly. I know I won't have ETTL, but will it still work manually? Presumably there is no harm in trying it out?
Yes that's why I've held off, but I didn't know if I was being stupid.unless of course it fries your camera electronics ,when in doubt leave it out !!!!
Both nice images but second is great What lens have you used, some kind of fisheye?Good night away in the van at Broadway Tower.

My Yongnuo 622 does not work om my EM5 ii, I had assumed that the centre pin on any trigger would work with the centre pin of any flash pretty much but not on the EM5 ii it seems. So I bought some of theseA quick question - I have a Yongnuo trigger which works with my Canon for off camera flash. I'm wondering if I can try it on my Oly.

Waiting on my 7 artisans version of thatSamyang 7.5mm fisheye Toby.
At f4
Brilliant lens for £150.
I use Yongnuo YN622C transceivers on my Canon 5D2 for ETTL and Manual Mode, but it also works for Manual Mode with no issues on my OMD EM1 Mk 1 and my Lumix GH3. I use them in manual mode to trigger my studio flash heads and very reliable they are too. However, note that all my M43 cameras have the 3 data pin hotshoes. Some of the later cameras add a pin 4 which feeds the separate bundled flashes with volts. I wouldn't use the 622C transceivers on the M43 4 pin cameras.
Thanks for the responses. I'll have a look at the number of pins tomorrow and try it out. I have the EM1 ii and Pen F so I may be out of luck. I've got neewer chargers and they've been good, so will look at those triggers too.My Yongnuo 622 does not work om my EM5 ii, I had assumed that the centre pin on any trigger would work with the centre pin of any flash pretty much but not on the EM5 ii it seems.

which work fine
Full steam ahead, wouldn't want to get in their way. Good capture, held the whites well which are accentuated by the dark background.
Well seen and caught. Also great low PoV...........just what was the "lay of the land" that gave that low a PoV???
The EVF (like OVF) has a diopter adjustment, it sounds like it's set to compensate for your (or similar) eye prescription. There's a dial on the side that changes the diopter so you should be able to find a setting that allows use with your glasses.I recently obtained an E-M1 (first generation) to see what M43 is about. I do like the form factor (I initially acquired an E-M10 and felt it was a bit too small but still a nice piece of kit), but I am now discovering the joy that is the fabled Olympus menu system. It is mostly understandable though some of the icons confound me at present, and I'm struggling to get the wifi connection established, though the latter is unimportant. The weirdest things I'm finding are:
1. EVF - it lags, so my first instinct was to hate it compared to OVF, but on the other hand I like the wysiwyg it offers
2. In the EVF (but obviously not LiveView), when I put my eye to it (with glasses) the picture is out of focus, but without my glasses it is focused. Is this normal or just me? I can't use it easily if I have to keep lifting my glasses out of the way.
Can someone offer a clear guide as to the best combinations of settings to establish - I liked the idea of combining a few groups of settings under a label with an assigned Fn button.
Interesting cameras, looking forward to using them a bit when I feel I can operate them adequately.
There is a great YouTube video where the guy goes through recommended settings 1 by 1. Where you go through and pause it when you try each thing it. There was a video for the EM5 and I think another for the em1. But many settings are the same. I don't have the link handy. But I posted one on this thread several times over the years.I recently obtained an E-M1 (first generation) to see what M43 is about.

There is definitely a sub setting for when using C-AF regarding releasing the shutter even when not in focus
Coincidentally, I was playing with C-AF last night and foudn it would focus then go out of focus and find it again, rather than find it and lock and then adjust if needed.
what shutter speed was being used ? My experience of the e-m1.1 was there was little difference in the number of keepers going from S-AF to C-AF
