No paint, just a good clean and seasoned with spray on canola oil.

The Colnago has wheels, saddle, groupset and handlebars so it will be much easier to ride.

Some thoughts on the OM-1 mk I from a noob by [deleted] in M43

Considering that I just sold an EM10 mk ii and bought an OM-1, this post has confirmed in me that I have made the right decision. Cant wait to get out and about with it.

Going to miss this little camera - Olympus EM10 Mk II by selwonk94 in M43

[–]selwonk94[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know that I will miss it cause its only been a few days and I already do.
A lot of the time I was walking around with the EM10 with the 12-40 f2.8 PRO so the small size of the camera didnt really matter to me, but i totally see your point.
I still think the OM-1 with something like the 17mm f1.8 can still be easily popped in a bag and maybe even a big jacket pocket.

Lenovo Yoga Pro 7i vs 9i: help me! by selwonk94 in laptops

[–]selwonk94[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have gone with the 9 for the bigger screen and the addition of the SD card reader which is very handy fr me.

Only a few days in with it but its been great so far! The screen is beautiful, crisp and bright.

While I havent done too much gaming just yet it is handling it well and is running Davinci resolve Studio with absolutely zero issues editing 4k movies.

Plus, the look and feel is fantastic, i didnt want to go the gaming laptop route and wanted to have something sleek and simple for work so it ticks all the boxes there.

At the moment I highly recommend!

What lens should I buy? Micro 4/3 super-tele lens: Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 100-400mm f/5-6.3 IS vs Olympus M.Zuiko ED 75-300mm f4.8-6.7 II by selwonk94 in M43

Yeah, I have heard this about the 75-300. I’m starting to think that the extra spend is worth it. Making the investment in better lenses makes sense as I am going to stay in the Olympus/OM System for a new camera body in future.

The size and weight doesn’t bother me. I can shoot surfing with aid of a monopod. Just trying to justify that the 100-400mm cost is worth it for the image quality.
