You hit the nail on the head. Sharpness and all technical stuff is useless if your photo’s lack content and story.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks.

@robinwong Год назад

Eh Robin allows you to change the settings as you like and customize the camera! Nice shots Matti, and I love the "calmer, quieter scenes" they look really dreamy.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks, Robin. Did not want to change it😀

@hauke3644 Год назад

I‘m sure Robin can easily restore his settings from the computer

1:50 I personally quite like the power switch on the left hand side. I'm pretty sure It's a carry over from the original Olympus film SLR designs. The EM10ii has a virtually identical on/off switch to the 1972 OM1. Actually though, your point is a good one because the Canon A1 had the power switch around the film wind on lever on the right hand side of the camera and it was a good position. I did turn off my A1 inadvertently after being in the Niagara Falls spray on my big trip abroad in 1983. I thought it was broken and it took me a while to realise that I'd turned it off. I flicked the switch on and it still worked. On came the cool digital LED display. I was super relieved. Great camera the A1.

@trishfre2 Год назад

I have just acquired the EM1iii, my third OM! Love it and prefer it to my EM5iii as the grip is better. I’m glad the ON/Off is separate as I don’t accidentally turn it off. My EM1iii arrived with Aperture on the back wheel and exposure variations on the front. I changed mine around, as per your way, as I prefer it that way. I also have a Sony a7ii, and yes, they are similar, but at least OM lenses are much cheaper than Sony’s, one of the reasons, apart from lightness, why I now prefer OMs. Love you pics! Say Hi to Robin for me. Have a great Christmas!🇦🇺

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks so much. Robin says hi as well😀

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

7:22 I agree. I think at this level of quality of gear, it's more down to being comfortable with and liking the camera. I liked my first M4/3 camera, the EM10 Mk ii straightaway, so I used it and used it and used it. It was enjoyable to take pictures with it. I took it most places. Not everywhere as Robin does but most places!😂

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

11:44 Time for some lunch and some "overpriced hipster food," as Robin says!😂😅🥑🍝🍵🍹🍸

@smalltalk.productions9977 Год назад

thanks for the effort and sharing. hiya to robin (he is great!). currently, my only m43rd body is the GX85. i have toyed with the idea of buying a Oly E-M1/mk2 or mk3. and when i think of buying another m43rd body, i end up taking out my fuji X-T2 and suddenly no Olympus! thumbs up.

@ryimpdx Год назад

Thanks for the walk. I appreciate the way you found color in the scenes. My town is so drab. I think I may just have to look harder or differently.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks.

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

Maybe try shooting in Monochrome with or without colour filters. Drab can become fascinating. Maybe the textures are interesting.

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

For a minute I wondered if this was the EM1iii that Robin gave away.

@AnandaSim Год назад

Good to see you out shooting non touristy shots of KL. I'm interested that you took distance shots of the Street scenes, it would not have occurred to me, I guess from my earlier life there, my mind has been programmed to go near. And conditioned to crop out or leave out what locals might perceive as not pretty. Thanks for conveying the vibe.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks so much. I appreciate you actually looking at my photos.

@Rnder72 Год назад

I shoot with the same combo for a lot of my photo's, I have that field of view pre-visualized. I really appreciate the ergonomics of the E-M1 M3, it just works for me, I am sure I could use a different system, but why change if I am having fun.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks. No need to fix it if it’s not broken😀

@hauke3644 Год назад

I like the photos of people just passing by… The E-M5 had the power switch on the back side. I really enjoyed the new position with the E-M1! Easy to grab, out of the way. But I don’t usually carry my camera in the hand.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks.

@rs_pa Год назад

Nice photos. You have a great eye at making mundane objects look interesting in photos. I would just walk on by & not see what can make an interesting photo, yet you find interesting compositions. Great job!

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

@@mattisulantoI agree with that comment. It's an unspectacular day out there but the photos have a good feel. They also look "real."

@nikoforu Год назад

I appreciate gear reviews where they show you the location/subject and then the tighter shot of it. But Sulanto and I are very different because what interests him and what he chooses to take photos of... well, I wouldn't do the same in his shoes.. :)

This video obviously does not represent everything I photograph, but good to hear we all are not shooting the same photos.

@mattisulanto Год назад

@paulthomas8986 Год назад

Love the photos. Even the older Olympus lenses are still fantastic. Rendering and resolution look great across the entire frame. This is not the case with a lot of my fuji lenses.

beautiful indeed, i got this lens use it with pen f it really make walking in gardens and street very enjoyable. thanks so much.

@stnrck6448 Год назад

Matti, did you hear me yelling from Denver, Colorado? At 10:10 into this video I said “take a photo of the blue and red water pipes”. I have often taken photos over the years of simple every day objects because they look pretty good when the light, color and isolation from the surroundings makes for an interesting photo.

@mattisulanto Год назад

I probably was a cosmic connection or telepathy😀

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

😂😅🤣 Tell him to go back there and make the shot! Or maybe you could do it and Meet Robin there. 😂👍 I can't find the still photo in the video.

@jasonwrites9186 Год назад

Oh man, you hit the nail on the head when you mention the size isn't really a big benefit over full frame options - until you get into the longer tele focal lengths. I shot M 4/3 professionally for a couple of years before moving to full frame. The system used to be the smallest by far, and that has changed over the years. And it's not cheaper either. In Canada the OM-1 with a 25mm 1.2 is the same as a Sony A7iv with the more compact G primes. I still love my olympus cameras, but they really need to step it up in order to remain competitive in the long term. EDIT: The 17 1.8 is one of my favs. I really like the subtle character of that lens when I edit the photos.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks for sharing.

@kamilpotato3764 Год назад

Them bigger m43 bodies like om1 aren't smaller than most of the newer FF mirrorless ones. M43 cameras still hold it's own in terms of ibis(smaller sensor, more space for adjusting in body?) and weight/size ratio when it comes to longer focal lengths definitely.

@Centauri27 Год назад

Yes, the price of Olympus/OM System gear is not cheap in Canada. I still remember the good old days, when Olympus year here were priced roughly the same as USD (absolute dollars). Then they decided to jack up all the prices by the exchange rate. Suddenly everything got 30% more expensive overnight!

@gunnarblomquist4412 Год назад

Om 1 is more expensive and heavier than Sony a7c. For my choice of lenses I dont save much weight with om system. Om ibis is better but I can live without that. Ff images looks better. The separation and noise.

@Lordvader330 Год назад

I set up my OM-1 and others the same as Robin. I usually leave my EC at +1.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks.

Small but significant difference.

@faezsj1360 Год назад

Olympus E-M1iii is the second body of olympus i try. But is the best body. And faster.

@systemanaturae105 Год назад

I still have and use my two EM1 m3 cameras even though have the OM-1 which tends to stay connected to my 150-400mm lens. But hey I also have a Panasonic G9 which is great for street photos. You said you now have Sony?? Well there is one Sony camera and lens I would buy which covers shooting birds in flight particularly in the distance where a heavy crop is necessary. The Sony A1 and 100-400mm lens with x1.4TC. This combination not only produces superb photos but is roughly the same size and weight as my OM-1 / lens system. Also amazing for video. Have a great time over Christmas 🎄🎄

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks. I'd love to have the A1, but it's slightly out of my budget😀

Olympus for Olympus and Panasonic for Panasonic.

@MichaelGerrard Год назад

The Oly 17mm f1.8 is a nice lens. The only thing I have found is that I get more lens flare on it. I wonder if that is due to better lens coatings on later lenses? Or it could just be me.

@mattisulanto Год назад

I don’t know, I have never noticed anything like that😀

@MichaelGerrard Год назад

@@mattisulanto just me then 😉

@MasterSekeyi Год назад

You mean those lens flare balls wenn shooting with strong lights? I noticed them when shooting street at night and got really annoyed but with LR you can just remove those balls with one click

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

@@MichaelGerrardJust you.😂 Actually, it's possible to get mega flare out of the 17mm/1.8 sometimes. I've noticed that also. Especially with a filter on. I've tried shooring with a UV filter on and then off but I can't really decide if it's the filter or the lens. Maybe both, because using a 46mm UV filter doubles the diameter of the front element so 4x the area to collect some flare perhaps.

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

@@mattisulanto I've got some mega flare and sunstar shots using the 17mm/1.8 while shooting in a beautiful local cemetery on a sunny day. When it happens, I try to turn it into an asset. What else can you do? ... Well maybe use a lens hood - but sometimes the sun's in the frame anyway.

@mne9476 Год назад

On your photo walk how many times did you power off/on the camera? I like the power switch position.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Not many times, because it’s so awkward😀 Seriously though, I just like to be able to turn my camera on and off with one hand.

@mne9476 Год назад

@@mattisulanto Pretty crowded on the right side though

@mattisulanto Год назад

@@mne9476 Well, it has been designed like that. I'm sure some thought that's a good place for a power switch.

@davebellamy4867 11 месяцев назад

@@mne9476It's just a matter of personal taste I think. I like it where it is as you do perhaps for the same reason - and because it follows the old OM1/OM2 designs. Also on the smaller EM5s and EM10s the right hand panel would get very crowded with it there. I kind of don't mind where it is, as long as I don't turn it on or off by accident.

@Kunal0915 Год назад

This was a good watch Matti. Might I say that the Sony 40 f2.5 is also weather sealed. Do you trust your Sony's weather sealing in the same way as Robin trusts his EM1 MK3?? I shoot the A6400 and the Sigma 30mm. I am having a look at the A7C and pair it with the 40mm f2.5. Is the weather sealing on Sony bodies trustworthy?

@mattisulanto Год назад

Thanks. I don’t know what you mean by trustworthy. My Sony camera have never let down.

@Kunal0915 Год назад

I have now bought the 40mm f2.5 and the Sony a7 III. It was a good deal. I am going to be out and about in light rain and stuff. Hopefully, the weather sealing will hold good.

The power switch replicates that of the old film OM slrs. Overtly retro but maybe not ideal.

@mattisulanto Год назад

Indeed it does. Especially on the EM10 Mk ii where it's virtually identical to the original 1971 OM1 switch with a 90 degree throw.
