Although I have the G9II and Gh6, I still love the Gx85. Amazing camera for all sorts of things. Here are two examples of 35 MY old 1/2" snail shells. These are handheld using the built-in flash with the fossil on a black mouse pad. I love the 60mm f2.8 but the 75-300 with the dual element Canon...

I have the Gh6 and G9II. While the AF for birding is very good on the G9II, the Gh6 is a video beast - already a "professional video camera". All video markets are changing - and very quickly. It could be that Panasonic has done a futures evaluation of the imaging market and it has determined...

For me it's table top stuff. Images of fossils, images of fruits/nuts (ala Weston), old & small things, other inside hobby stuff (like trains (sold them all 10 years ago). Most of us have been around for a while. How busy are those extension tube/maco filters, lights, flashes, background, or...

Two things for me: 1. Cost of replacing a system of lenses I am finally happy with my current lens lineup. New total cost around $6K (less than the cost of a FF birding lens:rolleyes:). Been in the system for about 10 years, and finally have all the glass I want (or need....). Unless I...

All their stuff for $300....Video and Still. Seems like a good deal. . Do you use it, and if so how do you like it?

So every year I take a trip with my friend of over 30 years. We go herping and arachnid imaging in the desert. We each wear a fairly bright miner's light as well as carry a UV light (for scorpions). As we age (74 and he is 80) I am wondering about using a flash for night imaging rather than a...

I'm getting ready for my annual trip with a fried to the American SW. My kit = Gx85, OLy 75-300II (with Canon 500D closeup lens), Pany 14mm with GCW1 (tested and was sharper than my 9-18, but not my 8-18mm). I only use this camera for the yearly trip and sometimes on my triocular stereo...

My "system" had risen to 4 cameras and my lens count to 11. With the acquisition of the gh6 last December I thought I was in "all done". At 74 I thought I had my dream system. Then the G9II came out with 3 benefits over my G9s that will be of benefit to the way I image. I wasn't done. But now...

Burned in a fire two years ago, but have a whole series from a while ago. Someone's hopes and dreams.

I am in the process of doing a documentary of Oregon's Wild Waters (Rivers and Streams and the Columbia at the mouth). Some B&W, some color. But let's see the world's Wild Water in this thread....

A relaxation piece done in Resolve Studio and Studio one PRO (music) using very old video from a D7100 of the Oregon Coast near Bandon.

First couple of a series...

Is my first shoot with my MPB 8-18 and a 35-100 f2.8 V1 (think I bought it here for a great price) on the Gh6. Looking forward to shooting where the Columbia runs into the Pacific Ocean. 4 hours of driving for 3 hours of shooting (if I don't do any high codecs as my Cfast card is only 256...

So, it looks like Panasonic really is still in the small camera game according to the m43 rumors interview. Heck if the small camera is the right one I might retire my Gx85 (although it's loving the 12-35 that now "it's lens" after getting the 8-18/12-60 for the bigger cameras. I think the best...

For about 7 years I've been using an Oly 9-18 and a Pany 14 with GWC1 as my "normal" wide angle lenses (I also have the Rok 7.5mm FE). The Pany 14 goes into my G9/100-400 case for landscapes when I'm out birding. The Oly never felt right on the G9's (but the images are really quite good) so the...

Starting a new youtube channel on how to use the hybrid capabilities of your gear. Focused on the art of, not the equipment

Going to order my Gh6 today, $500 off at B&H about $2297 for body with 12-60mm Have spent a lot of time doing "stuff" and have fallen behind in my posting here, but I thought the sale was pretty good. 10 more hours on this time limited sale. Ommm, Gh6/12-60mm now on its way.....

After 4 years or so of using V5, I saw that 6 was out. Now with Dual IS on my G9's I get very steady video. That being said sometimes you just need the extra or have to save an important take. 5 was very good, 6 is magic with the AI. I have a 12 core / 24 thread with 12 gig GPU and 3600 mz 64...

Every shot counts - cell phone, camera, or drone. I don't care if its studio, macro, BIF, or other, at home, far away, on your lunch break. I probably image 2 times a week, sometimes it's just a yard macro or table top image of fossils - other times it's a hour or so. Way down from say...

My "good glass" (all M43 is good glass if you ask me) is 7-14, 12-35,35-100,100-400. I've also got the 7.5 FE and 60mm Oly macro (which is a fantastic lens). I was going to go for one of the f1.7 zooms and realized heavy and very duplicative of the FOV's I have for my non-PRO use. So I've been...

I have my G9/Oly 60mm videoing hundreds of small American House Spiders (Achaearanea tepidfariorum) leave the egg sac. Although I am buying a new camera in October (now vacillating between the OM1 and Gh6), I will be keeping my 2 G9's. Why? because I know them and find them to be the perfect...

I spent some time today with my "like new" never been used V1 of the 35-100mm f2.8. Got this lens for $370 paypaled and shipped. For stills it is an amazing tool. I also did some shoots with my 58mm Canon 500D close up filter on the lens and the macros were very good (even in comparison 60mm Oly...

After much consideration I am adding a Gh6 to my 2 G9's and Gx85. And although I have a 12-35 I and the Oly 9-18, I am adding the PL 12-60 and 8-18mm to my other 8 lenses (basically for video with the Gh6). With the AI noise reduction and enlargement provided by my On1 programs I can't think of...

Just as I was getting started here, my 99 year old mom had a heart attack. Things are very busy with sale of house and of course the medical stuff. Will be back when I can.

I am thinking of getting one of the bigger eye cups as in bright light I have trouble with my photogray eyeglasses. Anyone here use one and does it make a difference? Thanks.

For many years, both for fun and professionally I used Vegas. In late 2021 I changed to Resolve Studio PRO with the speed editor. Retired and just doing video for me, I wanted a couple of things I couldn't get in Vegas, but was leery of changing after so many years using Vegas. That fear turned...

Since last summer I've been a co-organizer for a meetup group and have been "focusing" on going to small towns around the area (keeping it within an hour or so of home). Over the last 6 or 7 years using M43 cameras (EPL1, EP5, Gx8, Gx85, G9) I've acquired some good glass (although I think most...

Full image is from a handheld type II HighRes image using the G9/12-35 combination. Second image is a 100% of the steeple top. I took about 8 different HighRes of different subjects in this outing and found that only 1 or 2 attempts were needed to get this quality of image. For me it is very useful.
