    WHATS NEXT FOR M43, after Olympus, what future is left?

    A little excitement for omds? Om5 MK2 entry level range. New menu, "night shot" low light focussing aid, pre- capture but no subject detection. Video suck but hey it's entry level for first timers coming from smartphones. IP53 splash resistance. Small travel camera. Thread has crossed 151K views. 👌

    OM System 100-400mm IS MK2, one lens three perspectives. Rationale for m43?

    33° C is obviously hot. Remember peltier is a cooler and heat pump , it must be wired correctly. Either that or your usb supply is cutting off to prevent failure. Good luck. PS you must use the cool side instead of the hot side. Use your finger to feel when it's powered. 😉

    I would rather put it here than in general photography Although it applies to all photography but more so for m43 with the stigma of poor lowlight performance regarding ISO especially high iso...noise but if you manage your expectations and the look you are going for. Create art or taking a...

    Someone on his thread pointed out that the power required is somewhere around 1.5A to 2A so get a higher capacity power supply. Sorry for late reply as this forum was technically inaccessible until now.

    Sorry it is not simply trimming away the full frame lens to cover a m43 image circle and besides it is a waste of glass surface area and the extra trimming operation and costs. The proper way is a redesign of the lens to cover m43 image circle so a calculation of the new curvature or radius of...

    @Pitachu, AI answer to focal length and "effective" aperture... Not a Direct Measurement: The f-number doesn't directly tell you the diameter of the lens's aperture in millimeters, but it's a way to quantify the aperture size relative to the focal length. The f-number is the focal length of...

    Interesting lens with good features, dual focusing motors. Notice he used A1 and not crop sensor as it will be unbalanced in a way. As Steve said photography is a compromise,ultimately how useful it is for full frame or apsc remains to be seen. I doubt it will pose a threat to m43. Still omds...

    Blurry no matter how I try

    Some observations, bullet points will be easier to comprehend: 1. Lighting in living room is for home not that it's not bright enough for human eye which is many times a camera sensor's in dynamic range. What you see as bright is not for sensor. This is not a studio setup while a flash bounced...

    Why I think China can and will be a formidable photography power house because of DEEPSEEK. Remember the name.✌️Since some china photographic companies are signed on to the m43 alliance. The shocking news. What is Deepseek. How to use it for a small timer. The real reason for China's...

    Secondhand Drybox Reliablity concerns

    Sorry you have this bad experience. Go back to seller and get a refund. Even if you have electronic repair knowledge like myself unless you take it as a learning experience it is not worth the time ,research and money to do it. I did learn something of course for the sake of learning.. Moral of...

    No you cannot connect directly power supply because the peltier controller board regulates the voltage to it and perhaps monitor the voltage or current. Also note that in my photo I listed peltier unit gets negative 2 volts ( measured voltage ) I can't remember now but it's best to check...

    @ricohflex you have been brainwashed by camera manufacturers. Of course what you believe in is your choice but let's get to the truth. One of the gripes of m43 is the dynamic range because of the smaller pixels but truth is all sensors are generally the same but not all sensors are made equal...
