Last Saturday, I spent the entire day at the new Campus Einaudi University in Turin. I have been video documenting the entire construction for more than three years now, and on that day, we finished up our final shots using a drone and the Panasonic GH3.

Two weeks ago, we went to the Gran Paradiso National Park here in Italy and embarked on a wonderful 7 hour walk up into the mountains. It was just us, and the silence of nature surrounding us like a warm blanket. Of course, we brought our cameras along for the ride, and took a lot of pictures. I used my Olympus OM-D E-M5 with the M.Zuiko 12mm f/2 the entire time, while Heather had the Sony Nex-3N by her side (read the full review here).

Update: our full review of the Pen E-P5 is now up!

Yesterday, I had a brief encounter with the new Pen E-P5 at an Olympus product demonstration here in Torino. Unfortunately, I wasn’t allowed to take the camera out for a short spin as I had done with Fujinon 55-200mm last month, so I will limit myself to sharing just my preliminary thoughts about this new addition to Olympus’ line of mirrorless cameras. Here at MirrorLessons, we intend to fully review it when we have our own test model available, so stay tuned!
