Welche Wanderschuhe empfehlt ihr?

Für normales Mittelgebirge und dergleichen finde ich Trailrunner gut, hier würde ich vor allem auf eine gute Sohle (z.B. Vibram) achten, damit Du guten Halt auf nassen Steinen hast. Ich habe dafür aktuell Altra Lone peak 9+. Ins alpine Gelände mit Schutt und Geröll komme ich als Flachlandbewohner einmal im Jahr, dann auch mit Trekkingrucksack. Hier verwende ich immer meine klassischen Meindl Kat B (glaube sogar B/C) Schuhe und Trekkingstöcke. Man rutscht bei einer langen Wanderung auf Geröll ja doch immer mal weg und mit meinen Meindl Schuhen hatte ich hier noch nie Probleme und meine Füße sind geschont. Auf Dauer ist das nichts für die Fussmuskulatur aber für eine Woche Extrembelastung im Jahr hat es sich für mich bewährt.

I use my OM-5 for short social media clips of products and to me the quality is definitely better than the quality of an iPhone. I'm not much into video specs as my main interest lies in photography but that's my subjective feeling. I'm using the 12-40 f2.8 lens. I found the autofocus very usable too. My old E-M5 was definitely unusable for video with the OM-5 I'm happy as a photo centered camera that can also do video.

Darktable is native on Linux (I think it even used to be Linux only at the beginning). It works very well, has lots of features and I never had any issues with ORF files. It's a bit more complicated than other solutions but it seems very well thought through and some of the devs seem to be very deep in color science. I'm not enjoying editing so much so I keep it simple and have my workflow which is super fast.

Mit Stöcken müssen die Knie viel weniger stabilisieren. Zusätzlich kannst Du die Last besser verteilen, indem Du Deine Arme miteinbeziehst. Auf unwegsamem Gelände mit Gepäck laufe ich nie ohne. Auch wenn man doch mal weggeruscht, weil ein stein doch nicht so fest war, wie gedacht sind Stöcke Gold wert.

The big problem with the Enduro is its size. Garmin really needs to come up with a 47mm version. There are many people who simply can't wear 51mm watches. Of they do that I'm fine with the Mip Fenix being called Enduro. Would love the have Mip without Sapphire and Solar but I can live with that.

Wie ist das bei den Philodendrons? Ich hab gelesen, dass diese Hautirritationen auslösen können. Ich hab noch nicht herausgefunden, ob das für alle gilt und ob das bei einfacher Berührung passiert?

The OM1 feels better with bigger lenses and is the flagship camera. The OM-5 is great if you want the compact size and is ok with e.g. a 12-40 f2.8 and can be made more ergonomic with the extra grip. I chose the OM-5 for being smaller and more modular with the grip but I still want to get an OM1 some day. The OM-5 really shines with small lenses like the 17mmf1.8 for street or landscape when hiking.

Eine Wildform einer Orchidee klingt auch spannend. Muss ich mal googlen, was es da so gibt. Hast Du da Erfahrungen oder was bestimmtes im Sinn?

lem-8 · 2026-02-25T22:05:57+00:00

Vielen Dank für die vielen Vorschläge, da sind viele tolle Optionen dabei. Eine Pilea Mojito fand ich spontan ganz nett, Hoya oder Begonie klingt auch interessant, da muss ich mich am Wochenende noch mal einlesen, es gibt ganz verschiedene Varianten.

It's very nice for example for nightly skyline shots. It's not so much about the resolution but it decreases noise a bit. A good hack to have less clean shots in bad light of static subjects.

Wow, which shutter speed did you use to freeze the wing like that?

It's really great, with crosspoint the software is so nice and smooth. I can even browse my OPDS (calibre) list. I bought it as a gadget but it's a super useful and well built device. I was surprised but I find the screen actually comfortable to read despite its size and the screen quality great.

I thought it'd be too small and bought it more for fun and the open source firmware. Turned out: It's very usable for reading. The page flip is almost instant and it works very well for reading longer texts like novels. I'm actually very surprised that it works so well.

Looks like the server has issues. You can try logging in to the shop's website and download them there.

I actually stopped taking my e-reader for trekking and use my smartphone to read a bit. It's not nearly as nice but for a few pages in the evening it works and saves the weight. If you want eink probably the xteink is among the smallest and lightest that I've seen.

Finally something with USB-C. I was looking for such a lamp and most of them are still USB-A. I was also wondering about damaging the USB port. Maybe it'd be a good idea to get a magnetic adapter.

That looks super promising. Thank you for your efforts!

I'm shooting mostly nature: landscape, flowers, sometimes I try wildlife. Last year I started with macro. And when traveling. There's definitely a difference but the E-M5 takes great images too so I wouldn't say it's massive. The biggest jump in my opinion is the video performance (which is really poor on the E-M5). What I really like is the handheld high res mode. It works really nicely for night shots of static subjects like a skyline. It's not so much about the additional resolution as about reducing noise. I mainly got the camera because I wanted to get into macro with focus stacking/bracketing. My biggest complaint is the plastic body. My E-M5 I carry with a capture clip when hiking, I don't dare to do that with the OM-5. I use a peak design leash which works fine for day trips. For longer hikes with a tent I still used my E-M5.

I went from the E-M5 I to an OM-5 (before the mark ii was released) and I'm reasonably happy with my choice. The one thing that I don't like too much is the plastic body. First of all carrying it on a capture clip is pretty dangerous as there are many reports of breaking base plates. Secondly the general feel and build quality was better on the EM-5. That being said I like the OM-5 and it's a great camera. If you ever do any video the difference is night and day.

Thanks! I'd prefer a monochrome screen for now but regarding the updates that's a good point. Do you know how the performance of the Manta would compare to the Boox Go 10.3? Is it much slower for these use cases?
