1/?This is the review of an OM-5 micro 4/3 camera. I am a full frame user, and I bought this camera to have a small, fun, attractive camera to take snapshits around town. I own or have owned a D850, Z5ii, Z6ii, basically every Nikon DXXX DSLR, D500, Z50, etc. This is my first M43 camera and I was not sure what to expect, so I am chronicling my impressions both for myself, and for other photographers who are looking for a small, fun camera. Ergonomics: This camera is outstanding IMO. For me the Nikon FF cameras are in this weird middle spot that is ergonomically uncomfortable for me. They are either too small or too big. The D850 and my D7500 fit my hand fantastically. I will always have a Nikon DSLR because they are so comfortable to hold and use. The OM-5 is smaller to hold than my Z5ii for example, and that gets it out of the uncomfortable middle ground. With the Z5, I’m always between holding it in front with all of my fingers, or just 3 – there isn’t really enough room for all 4, but with 3, it feels a little insecure. With the OM-5, three fingers fit perfectly. There is enough grip on the front and a great thumb rest on the back. The buttons are very well placed on the camera body for operation while shooting. Simply put, this is a very comfortable camera to hold and shoot. For reference, when I am walking around and shooting, I grip the camera the entire time in my right hand, and have a wrist lanyard for safety. This can be fatiguing with a larger DSLR (the D800 in particular had almost no thumb rest and it was agonizing to carry. The D850 is much better, but is just heavy and gets tiring on the wrist after several hours). The D7500 is extremely comfortable in this regard because of its blobmera shape and light weight. The Z series FF cameras are in the middle ground of just “ok”. The OM-5 was very good.TO BE CONTINUED

I'm just a forester with an OM-D E-M10 Mk IV, who like to take photos when I'm out in the field. Clearly I'm not a great photographer, but I do have fun.Lens is a TTArtisan 17mm F1.4
Of course I took this photo right before I spooked all of the ducks.
Last one.Next set of photos will probably be after I get a UV and polarizer in the mail for this lens, or after I find time to go out to cliff with a hell of a view I know of. (lots of people know about it, but it isn't officially a designated recreation area...probably because if you slip you will die, or be left in a state where you regret living)
>>4491344>I'm just a forester with an OM-D E-M10 Mk IVNo you're not just a forester, anon. You are also a gigantic faggot and a victim for buying into the OM system

So this shit not happening?
Does anyone use GIMP for photo editing and manipulation? Has it become a "photographer's program" yet, or is it still clunky and freetarded?
At this point Lightroom/PS combo is the only thing stopping me from ditching Windows. I'd love to see an actually good alternative that does everything those two apps do, but there isn't one.
I use Darktable for editing jpg:s also.
>>4488079It's a good tool overall, but it can't do compositing and layering well or at all. For my product photography, I need both.
>>4485372after learning how to use dt, I don't even like LR and C1 anymoreI could use LR for free because of my work but I don't want all that bloat and bs associated with it
I used GIMP for many years but now I got a job & able to buy Ps & LrC.Bye Bye GIMP!
Why has the world abandoned photo shoots of good looking women?99% of anything I see now is selfies and if its a photoshoot its just to sell clothing or some super generic looking agency testshoot. 10 years ago or whatever the world was full of every good looking girl doing multiple photoshoots just for content. What happened?
>>4481289Because Fauci and Blden wants women and men to not be attracted to each other anymore unless it’s to politicians or billionaires And 80% women are so stupid they fell for it
>>4482436nothing about schwab or soros or this time?
A) You should go to this obscure site called INSTAGRAM and take a better look.B) American politics ruined everything. Both the conservatards and leftards hate women, hate their bodies and hate beauty for some weird reason.
>>4481289They got fucking boring after a while. I mean how many pictures of bitches you're not going to fuck can you look at? And for what? At some point these bitches all look the same anyway. You've got 3 or 4 facial types that make it in modeling, and then their makeup gets done 2 or 3 ways and you just get it jammed down your throat 80,000,000 times and eventually you realize you've seen enough, none of it has gotten you any closer to fucking any of them, they're all rich and you're a fucking sad bastard pulling his pud on an office chair. The whole thing is fucking boring. All of this, this whole universe and life in it, boring boring boring. It's like, fuck man. Just... Fuck.

Thanks, OP!
What's /p/'s opinion on one of the most viewed (online) photographers?>Sex And Takeout is an ongoing viral series on the unnecessary and unkind social boundaries and cultural taboos forced upon women’s bodies. By indulging in sex and junk food, Bahbah proposes a celebration of the self. Inspired by her personal battle with disordered eating, Sex And Takeout is a declaration of overcoming guilt and shame. Through this series, Bahbah unpacks expectations of femininity and challenges her own standards of beauty.
>>4490041Finally, someone answers my actual question instead of sperging out over my opinion. Thank you, anon.

I don't want to buy a new flagship every two years. I just want to have a nice pocket camera and keep my midrange for a while. My old olympus pocket camera lasted for almost a decade. Preferably nothing more expensive than $700

The Ricoh GR 3/3x/4 are the only cameras that remain pocketable with reasonable IQ. The rx100 series are a close second, but you'll be trading down in IQ (but trading up in AF).The GR is notorious for sucking dust into the sensor, so if your target environment has a polluted atmosphere, avoid, unless you have a Ricoh service center close by.I found an LX100 in mint condition for ~360 on mpb. You'll find some decent deals if you're patient, but again, the IQ will be a step down from even the RX series despite the larger sensor.The other models mentioned will only make you want to kys when you compare the IQ and shooting experience to that of a phone.If you are really committed to something timeless with decent IQ, film might be the way to go.Picrel, the GR is the GOAT in pocketable digital compacts.
>>4490075No :(Sounds like you should just use your phone instead :(((
It's 2026 - here are my new years' resolutions:I'm going to leave this godforsaken board. This is a fucking highly negative place infested by gearfags, chartfags and the mentally ill. This board sucks all the joy out of the hobby. A bucket of crabs so to speak. I'm also going to leave all other photography related forums and communities. It's full with nophoto assfags who are just frustrated at their own lack of photographic skill and try to pull down everyone and anyone to their own level of incompetence.Cya fuckers.As a parting gift I'm giving you a bunch of shitty firework pictures.
>>4491670>im better than edward burtynsky and annie leibovitz because shooting fat retards gay weddings is a slog and im not doing itpros arent the ones that consoom their way through 4 camera setups worth $5-6k while complaining and spouting gearfag delusions the whole time just to take cut off photos of fireworks with blurry blob cars filling half the frame, foggy trees, and random building cornersespecially not studio pros (actual artists)
>>4491670>people who take good photos the first time every time and know how to use a camera? lame. just because people are willing to pay you doesnt mean you’re better than me, the secret king!kek
>>4491673>le motte and bailey Not to say I think these are good photographers, but I'm talking about the Many from your statistics who photograph people and things they don't care about to earn a living
>>4491675Learning the technical side is so easy it's not even a protected trade anywhere
>>4491681Right thats why you’re so successful at it
this was the absolute peak of digital photography and its all been downhill after here. seriously look at the shots on flickr with this tag and how good they look. mirrorless is super sterile and fake looking, and older than the mkii just were shit to use and had too much noise. seriously dont sleep on these, 5d mkii and some EF L glass has u covered and then u can spend the rest of the money on travel and taking kino shots.
