15 Pictures of the Alps taken with the OM-D E-M5

16/07/2013 By Mathieu

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).

Mirrorless on the Job – Episode 1: Working with the Olympus OM-D E-M5 as my primary camera

Update: I now use an OM-D E-M1 as my primary camera for work. You can read about my experience with it here.

On a professional level, changing your gear isn’t something that you want to do on a whim. In our work, everything lies in the details, and when you change the setup you use everyday, all these details must be reconsidered, from the simple familiarization with the new features of your camera, to understanding how the camera will react in any given situation. While it takes time and patience to harmonize with a new body, it is also an invaluable personal step forward, whereby you add something new to your photographic approach.

‘Mirrorless Monday’ with Christopher Frost and the OM-D E-M5

In this week’s edition of Mirrorless Monday, English photographer Christopher Frost takes us to a place very close to our hearts – the country of Wales, where the definition of “colourful” is turned on its head. Never have we seen green hills so vivid, or grey seas so piercing as in this beautiful country. Hence our trips back there every year!

Walking in Wales: An Olympus OM-D E-M5 gallery

17/02/2013 By Heather

Last week, during Carnival Break in Italy, I scooped up the opportunity to return to Wales, UK to spend some time with my parents. I had never been to Wales during the winter, so I was curious to see how the already wooly and wild landscape had adapted to colder temperatures. To document the trip, I brought along the Olympus OM-D E-M5, a mirrorless camera which is known for its ability to bring out the best colour in any landscape, even one as rugged as the Welsh coast.
