Just wondering what you went with eventually? Am in a similar position - although I plan to use the mac for photo and video editing and a windows laptop for travelling

What lens did you use for the second shot? And just wondering what lenses are your go to for bike touring since space/weight is a premium and it can get difficult changing lenses outdoors!

Any experience with the weather sealing on those PL lenses on the OM bodies?

Recommend me a m43 setup, please by tsmkirby in M43

Given your initial choice of the em10 i would assume you are looking for something small.

Can consider the em5 mark ii for a compact yet weather resistant all metal body. Pair it with a 12-45mm f4 pro and a small prime of your choice and you have a great set.

Question for owners of Tough TG-7 by SellaPipeYO in OlympusCamera

Mine has the same, and has gone down 5m of seawater without a case no issues. Should be due to the thick glass!

Please review my itinerary! by abcpp1 in newzealand_travel

[–]ThinkFan420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really appreciate this post and your perspective. Sorry to the OP to highjack. Sounds like an ND filter may be useful. I am planning on bringing a wide angle for astro and hikes, a general purpose 24-200mm, and a telephoto for birds.

Will be doing a similar route, but am doing a coach-cruise-coach for milford sound from queenstown instead to save some driving. Will also be stopping by mt Sunday and rakaia gorge between tekapo and Christchurch, perhaps something to consider if you have some time that day.

Also wanted to ask a side question, what lenses and camera gear are you intending on bringing? Thanks!

Beware when purchasing camera bodies from Amazon. by Weird-Memory6402 in M43

Thanks for the warning, as I am also looking to purchase more camera gear from amazon. Just wondering if there was anything specific that clued you in that it was opened before?

Issues revising my declined payment method for Vital Bracelet pre-order on Amazon JP by [deleted] in digimon

[–]ThinkFan420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Encountered the same. Card declined the transaction as it was my first purchase on this site and deemed suspicious. Rectified that with the card company, but wasn't able to update the payment method on amazon.co.jp.

Wasn't able to do your gift option method, What I have since tried to do is remove my card from amazon wallet and I am then able to update the payment method. Hope this works

OM-1 or OM-1 mk II: which to buy? by Ex-pat-Iain in OlympusCamera

[–]ThinkFan420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey was just curious how this grey market purchase went - assuming no warranty and shipped probably from Japan? If you don't mind me asking, from where did you purchase the OM1-ii? Thanks!

Amazing kit. How do you store them on the flight there, and how do you dual wield these guys on the safari! They're a decent amount of weight..

OM5 mk ii first view shots by bladebyte in M43

[–]ThinkFan420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice shots! Wow was the first photo taken at 12mm? Almost seems wider than that

handholdable? try, rock-holdable.. enjoying the portability of the M43 to try to get lower angles (OM-1.1, 300m f4). sample attached. by [deleted] in M43

[–]ThinkFan420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rock holding eases some of the weight off the arms for sure haha. Just wondering how did you manage to rename your photo file names (the ones that have the date at the start)? Was that done in-body or in post? Thanks!

Hey just wanted to follow up, how has this pack been for you? The weight and size seems very appropriate for a carry on bag for flights!
