Thanks for this...the two green dots have now disappeared! (y)

Thank you!! I will check this out later

That's really good to hear, thank you very much for clarifying (y)

I recently purchased an OM-1 Mark II which was delivered today. I've noticed a couple of things: 1) There are 2 stuck pixels in the EVF. It looks like they're only visible in the EVF and not on the sensor (though I'm going to do some more testing on this). Is this within what would be...

It looks like they're just on the EVF Noticed something else too, but think I might start a new thread

I realise this can be a polarising issue (pun absolutely intended!) and I'm not wishing to spark another debate as to whether UV filters are a worth it or not, but for those who do choose to use them (UV filters, that is), which brand do you go for? Having just just splashed on a new cam/lens...

It's arrived! :woot: First question...how many dead pixels is it acceptable to get in the EVF on a new cam? Looks like there are 2 on this one Well...I'm not sure if they're "dead" or "hot"? Either way, there are 2 green dots in the EVF

Well, I took the plunge...!! Had a play with both the OM-5 and the OM-1 Mark II and in the end decided on the OM-1 Mark II. The OM-5 was very small and compact, but if felt like the OM-1 just fit me a bit better, plus it had some extra stuff that the OM-5 didn't. It's a bit of a hit...

That's impressive!!!

Thanks for the info (y) I'm assuming you'd only use NR if you eyeballed a photo and the noise was noticeable? Or do you run photos through it as a matter of course? As you can probably tell, I'm by no means an expert when it comes to PP - currently I just have PSE that I use for various...

Thanks for the example...appreciate that :) And yes, that's noticeably better than my 40D at 3200! Tbh if I think about it, most of the time I don't shoot much above 200 ISO if possible...maybe stray to 400, or very occasionally 800, if I need to (low light and/or moving subject), but it's...

This is very much my thinking...it doesn't matter how good your camera is if it ain't with you! The size advantage would be a big plus for me (along with the other advantages already mentioned) and whereas it does seem there might be a slight pay off in terms of low light performance and the...

Thank you very much - appreciate that (y) I'll keep you posted...!

Thanks, good to know, From what I've read, the OM-5 Mark 2 (pre-order at the moment I believe), whilst not containing many significant upgrades, does now include a chunkier grip on the camera body and improved menu systems. I'm hoping I can find a shop locally that has one in stock so I can at...

How about with non-IS lenses? Would shooting at 400+mm need a tripod? Or still shootable hand held?
