    Sold my stuff - big mistake. What to replace it with?

    I had M43 for a few years, having gone Canon crop to Canon FF to Fuji mirrorless then M43. Now I’m back in FF, but with Sony mirrorless and this is probably the first time I’ve been completely satisfied - I had the realisation that if I had to buy all my equipment again, I’d actually buy exactly...

    Laser Eye Surgery.

    I’d think it unlikely that laser surgery will correct a presbyopic prescription and leave you completely free of glasses - generally it’s distance or near, not both. You are also at an age where it’s likely that prescription change will occur, largely due to changes in the crystalline lens that...

    The Viators

    Milldale from Viator Bridge, Derbyshire. I don't usually like including people but I quite like having some viators in this one. Not sure why but no matter what I do it's much softer on here than it actually is, clicking on it is closer to how it actually looks but still not quite there...

    Anti reflective coating on glasses

    Standard MAR coatings will have no effect on colour perception, if preservation of this is key avoid ‘anti blue light’ coatings as these do have a yellow tint.

    Are you a member of a local camera club?

    My photography club is very much of the getting together and talking about where we’ve been and what we’ve got up to once a month type, along with (at least) monthly trips out to actually take photos; I really enjoyed those, I ended up going out when I perhaps wouldn’t have done to places I...

    Olympus OM-D E-M5, E-M1, E-M10 - Mk1, Mk2 & Mk3 Owners Thread

    Taken during a walk through a local wood. A very mild exposure blend, just used a slightly darker one to bring back some of the highlights. Fairy Hole (sRGB) by HazelJS, on Flickr

    Beginner Features for a child's 1st camera

    As someone who is not a child but who has child sized hands, make sure he can actually hold it! There are cameras that most people wouldn't consider particularly large, but I can't hold them in any practical way with the intention of using them.

    First trip out of the house in about 2 months; not the best conditions but I've spent lockdown learning more PP skills and was determined to have something to show for my trip. WistowWood1 - 1 by H S, on Flickr

    Olympus OM-D E-M5, E-M1, E-M10 - Mk1, Mk2 & Mk3 Owners Thread

    Could have done without the sun burning the mist away before going away again itself, but as photos taken on dull overcast days I quite liked this.

    New Year's Day at Thetford Forest

    Best of a bad bunch, this is the only one out of eighty-four that I kept. When I arrived, there was a light mist, then the sun came out just enough to burn it away but not enough to be interesting, then went away altogether, just leaving flat light and little interest. As far as photos taken on...

    Opticians

    It's not that outrageous a statement. There certainly are things you can pay for in a pair of glasses that don't follow that rule - I've seen untold number who have always had the 'highest level of thinning' on a prescription I wouldn't even suggest a single step on, let alone three, and they...

    A few from a make-up photography holiday, considering Dartmoor didn't include anywhere near as much walking as intended. These are all from the peak district. 35 by Hazel S, on Flickr 239 by Hazel S, on Flickr 435 by Hazel S, on Flickr 485 by Hazel S, on Flickr

    https://wow.olympus.eu/ Don't know if it'll have exactly what you want to try in it, not sure how extensive the offered range is, but supposedly a very good way to try it out.

    Had a chat with someone who spent a couple of days test driving the EM5III today, he was very impressed with it and didn't have a bad word to say.
