Congratulations on the new setup. I have been an Olympus, and now OM-Systems, shooter since August 2017. I sold all my Canon gear, full frame, to do it and I do not regret that decision. You will love this system.

@Bluenose7 Год назад

Nice video Stewart and welcome to the dark side! “Toy Camera”??? What every user of Olympus & OMDS pro gear will tell you is that the build quality & weather sealing is second to none. Add to that the extensive feature set, best in the business IBIS and superb glass you will soon come to realise that you have largely wasted a lot of time using any other system for macro, better late than never, though!!!…..

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

I think I already realised it, like you said… better late then never!

@valeriehoffman8180 Год назад

I drank the Olympus Kool-Aid several years ago-after being a 40 year Canon user. Far more great features in a delightfully small and lightweight package. I’m all in with no regrets! So happy for you 😁

@minb1217 Год назад

I switched from Canon to Olympus a while ago - I’ll be 80 later this year and can’t carry the huge, heavy gear around any more!. I love the system! So many brilliant features and, as you say, perfect for macro. I haven’t found anything it doesn’t excel at. Your mini spiddys look wonderful.

@johnwood6750 Год назад

Nice, I shoot with an OM Systems OM-1 and mostly do field macro stuff, the small size and weight are a blessing. The 40-150 f2.8 is also brilliant at getting shots of bugs that are likely to fly off, as it's the equivalent of an 80-300mm tele in terms of field of view and has a relatively small working distance of 1.3m. A great system for Macro.

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

If I didnt do RU-vid I would sell all my gear and get the OM1 with the 90mm lens :)

@aerialfilm1 Год назад

You are absolutely approaching this with the right mindset. Yes the FF has a slight edge in low light, but nothing that can’t be overcome. I’ve been in m4/3 to FF and back again. The E-M1.2 is a powerhouse and is priced so low right now it’s the perfect way to add m4/3 as a complement to another system. The trade value was so low I ended up keeping mine when upgrading to the OM-1. Find a used RRS L bracket. That little extra grip of the bottom plate will change the entire handling of the camera for the better. The vertical grips are cheap as chips now too. Welcome to the enlightenment.

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

Thank you, I'll take a look at the L bracket.

I upgraded to The R6 a while ago, available 2nd hand from mpb, does focus stacking superbly. Last year i sold my laowa 100mm & bought the canon rf 100mm together with the R6 gives superb results. Obviously costs more than the olympus set up but I'm worth it 😊

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

That’s a nice setup indeed.

@jimmymonk3603 Год назад

Great video Stewart. As a Canon shooter myself I did the same thing 1 month ago except I got the OM-1 and 90mm Macro. I love the combo. The menu system is a learning curve but with youtube there is a wealth of tutorials out there. Micael Widell has also been trying out the OM system for Macro.

@flotinaway7 Год назад

Looks like a very interesting move and your results are stunning. I have the Canon R5 but unfortunately the firmware focus stacking won't allow for flash to be used, as that feature uses a 20fps burst. I feel like I have too much Canon gear to change setup now.

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

I know right, this 7 year old camera is out performing my Canon by miles.

Nice setup you got there! If you ever get the opportunity, it would be nice to see how the cropped Canon R range compares. I have been eyeing a R50 myself with a nice 15fps and built in focus bracketing even though I still love the look of single shots over massive stacks

@Notagain640 Год назад

I bought the canon r6 mkii a few weeks back specifically because it had built in focus stacking among other features i wanted. It works brilliantly. I'm taking 12-15,000 images per project and just keeping the composited result while binning the rest. Saves me a ton of work. Very happy.

@NathenDanforth Год назад

The focus stacking on the R6.2 is awesome! Unfortunately it cannot be done with flash. The Olympus can stack with flash, unfortunately though only 8-15 images depending on the model. And Olympus doesn't allow the multi image delete like Canon. Alas, there is no perfect camera. But the OM-1 is close.

@Notagain640 Год назад

@Nathen Danforth yes unfortunately I have to use a ring led, but my subjects are static, so it just means a longer exposure. It uses its rolling electronic shutter, which apparently is the reason it can't trigger a flash, and Canon has said that the mechanical shutter could be enabled in a future firmware release, but I doubt that will happen. The composite image generated is a jpeg and I use that to identify the batch of images I want to keep. I shoot in RAW knowing that the sub shots are not what I want. So i grab the jpegs and quick reformat or erase everything else. I don't think the camera can auto erase the images used to create the composite. This is the best workflow I've found. However if I'm missing something in terms of auto deleting the RAWS, please let me know. All help and advice is grarefully received. I'm new to this.

@NathenDanforth Год назад

@@Notagain640 say the stack failed. The jpeg comes out all wonky and you know you won't want any of the raws in the sequence. Just hit delete (on one of the raws preceding the jpeg) while in playback and a prompt will pop up that asks if you want to delete all the images in the sequence. If you're shooting a lot of stacks it saves you a ton of time sorting through the failures later.

@Notagain640 Год назад

@Nathen Danforth yes, I discovered this by accident and used it extensively to start with. Now I'm using a Manfrotto genie to auto index so I no longer have chance to use this feature because I set it going and leave for 10-15 mins to take all the shots before the next setup. My 128GB card fills up quickly but it just means I have to take images off every 40 mins or so.

@Sooch900 Год назад

Excellent video and channel (new subscriber today!) two questions if I may? Can you look through the viewfinder (or view the screen) while you are shooting the focus stacks/brackets? On my Nikon Z9 it’s got a great focus stack feature but the major downfall is you have to go to the menu, and use the focus stacking feature from there. While it’s doing it’s thing you have the menu screens, you can’t look through the viewfinder etc. Second question: How do you not “lose” your spiders while they are out in the open? I see him on the flower on your desk, but what stops him from jumping off the desk and disappearing? Thanks for your time!

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

You can use the evf the same way you can with a single shot, the focus stacking does not limit you. The spiders are well fed and don’t really wonder off.

@richball3260 Год назад

@@StewartWoodArt That is fine if you always want that extreme xof capability. But a pair or extension tubes are helpful for those times when you might want just a little more out of the 60mm but not 2X. The Meike ones I mentioned are plastic have the one to camera body electrical contacts and are only around $30. I didn't mention that Laowa makes a 50mm 2X Macro 4/3. It is $400 here in the US. It is manual focus but does have contacts so you do get the f stop info. Finally, try the 2X teleconverter setting on your EM II. Even with the drop in resolution it is useful.

@lensman5762 Год назад

I have both Nikon and Canon digital systems as well as some very high-end rangefinder and medium format film cameras. Three years ago I bought into the Olympus MFT system, nothing crazy and all used and only what I needed. If you look at the numbers, MFT doesn't make sense, but the results say something else. It is a very capable but under rated system. It has its limitations, but not for 95% of all photographers. I think a lot of photographers try and compensate for lack of talent by buying expensive stuff and use them as a badge of credibility.

@gabridian Год назад

what about EOS RP? It has focus stacking

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

I didn't want to buy a new camerra just for one feature that could have been addeed via firmware, that's why i opted for the M34 system so I can explore this system more.

Canon focus bracketing can not use other flashes.. you can only use very very expensive EL-1

@jbslv Год назад

@@user-pt5cl2uc7m Interesting. I thought not even the EL-1 would work since focus bracketing uses the electronic shutter.

Hi, Steward. This is a choice you never regret. I have the Lumix G9 also Micro 43 and I love it. The extra depth of field is just amazing. I also do a lot of macro work myself. The 60 mm Zuiko lens is small but a beast in results. I hope you have a lot of fun with your Micro 43 Olympus. PS. I have an Olympus OM10 mark 3 as a backup camera. Stunning video, man. Greetings from the Netherlands, Antoine.

Stewart ... I am very disappointed in this video's title. "Canon Failed Me" Canon did not fail you but they do not offer in camera focus stacking, which is apparently a desire of yours. Good for you. Please understand that folks like you, and your videos and may be swayed to make decisions based on your reports. All camera systems have issues for example Olympus = major noise issues when using in low light / Laowa lenses = questionable build quality issues. If you will discuss the positives and the negatives of a camera system you will be doing your viewers and Patreons a favor ...... transparency and full disclosure goes a long ways

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

The title is fine as Canon failed “ME” not “you” or “us” and I have been talking about the positives for years.

@EKowallis Год назад

Canon failed you? You can't be serious,.

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

Lol yep 👍

@a81l1fy Год назад

Canon is one of the best when it comes to Macro specifically. The new RF Canon 100mm Marco lens is out of this world! You can even change the boka size/edging. Also their are so many different macro lenses for the price ranges from the entry level all the way to the new RF macro and my by far favorite macro lens the MPE 65mm 1x-5x with the twin light flash. Yeah you are staying in your price range if that is your restriction but saying that "Canon failed you" on macro photography is crazy and makes you sound like you just don't know any better and I know that is not true. But you did get a good click bait title if that is the type of creator your okay with being. It works and this is a business so that is good and to each their own. Macro is my favorite type of photography but their is no way I personally would grab that camera for my macro work.

@StewartWoodArt Год назад

I sold my MP-E 65mm to get this camera for the channel, I needed to explore the M43 system for macro photography.

@@StewartWoodArt The title of the video , You can't blame a brand . As i also use Canon . One has to learn to adapt without .A stacked sensor isn't the be all and end all . I have a 850D / / 90D .. use them both with a laowa 100mm x2 . And i never use a diffuser ethier .
