Micro 4/3 Micro 4/3 samples

This one was uploaded through my phone onto Instagram - using the Instagram app I cropped the image and applied structure and sharpening. I really need to get back into post processing images properly. Working from home for my employer on my own home PC means I don't want to use it in the evenings...

I've had quite a few mu4/3 cameras through the years. My first was a used OM-D E-M5. In this image from late in the evening on March 9, 2016, I was looking across the river at our state capitol building, and decided to try one of the Art filters (don't remember which one).

E-M1 & OM Zuiko 80mm Auto-Macro w/ 65-116mm Extension Tube - probably not the right lens but its been several months since I last used this and figured I'd see how it went... need to get a little too close to be useful but the magnification is hard to beat even if I find it can make its subjects a little 'brittle' sometimes (maybe its just the harsh-sunlight and spindly bee fur?)

A couple of quick snaps with the Oly EM1 and the new to me Panasonic 12-60/2.8-4 OIS lens. I'm really liking what I see so far!

My 135mm OM Auto-Macro arrived from Japan this morning...

A couple of very quick test-shots hand-held - still getting the hang of the working distance. Can infinity focus AOK but the there is a gap between tele-macro distances and infinity that I need to figure out (I'll never shoot beyond macro distances but its nice to know where things are in focus at the long end in case I need to take an emergency bird shot or something).

Shot the venerable GF1 alongside the M10 today; one should think that there's no contest, but I was really pleased with the results from that little warrior ...

Certainly crisp enough, and nice roll-off, too (even at f/2.8!) ...

Of course, the M10 with the Summicron-M 50mm f/2 is more capable, but there's no reason whatsover to disregard the GF1 with its 20mm f/1.7 companion!
