I like the pro capture feature on the OM1
Malachite Kingfisher.

I can see some resemblance but I thought it too big and all the time I was there I never heard any chiffchaffing

They hardly sing at all at this time of year, although a few do on migration. Apart from the robin, most birds don't sing outside the breeding season.

Now your taking the mickey out of us mere mortals

Quick question for OM-1 owners - getting the EVF to show what the actual exposure is, rather than an enhanced versions, that makes my Manual captures under or over exposed.

.... RTFM - It's all in the Instruction Manual.

You started it. I was quite happy with my Canon kit until I spoke to you!!

Brilliant. You must be very pleased with that response, well done.

Some nice shots but looking at them on your flickr I am quite dissapointed in the quality of the PP which I think lets a lot of the shots down. Looking at them on here small works great though. Some wierd textures and stuff used.

.... What goes around comes around and you have responded to me in similar vein lots of times. Plus also never thanked me when I have helped you, not even clicking a Like. Besides which it is written in the Instruction Manual.

@Fordsabroad Gordon, a superb collection!

"RTFM"? Happy to have it pointed out where I have said something like this 'lots of times' (without provocation).

Sorry that I haven't thanked you for help. I shall remember in future of your sensitivity.

I was hoping an OM-1 user might be able to help, seemed nice enough.

Thank you Robin

A good quote just arrived, so it either goes in the forum as a bundle or off to mpb next week.

I've been away for a while so may have missed your post. What are you up to Dave? Are you selling your Olympus gear?

Edit - actually doing a catch up read, I see you are going back to Fuji. It's a bit late now, but you can play a little with the colours e.g. there is a warm setting I think, or maybe it's vibrant?

Hi because because I do a lot of street photography I have come back to Fuji so both Sony and Fuji for me now.
