Q&A Using the Olympus FL-LM3, Best Aperture, & Adjusting White Balance ep.393 

Absolutely!

@@RobTrek almost there (in UK) Merry Christmas!

Thanks! Happy to help.

Merry Christmas, Thomas! Thank you for all your support over the years.

Thanks for sharing. Makes perfect sense to use this flash for macro.

Happy holidays!

Happy new year!

Yes they are!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks! A little push on ISO solves a lot of problems.

Thanks. Happy holidays!

I'll try to answer it. I can't see the raw files in camera unless I shoot in raw only mode. You can then do raw data edit in camera and view the jpeg results. With taw + jpeg it shows only the jpeg in camera. Trying shooting in just raw mode, I took photos at 6000 and 3000K custom white balance and got the obvious colour difference. Then in raw data edit I created a jpeg from the 3000K photo at 3000K and one from the 6000K photo changing it to 3000K and the two jpegs look exactly the same. As for the raw files themselves, they look different for the ones I shot in raw only mode but maybe it's just that they're displayed on screen with the originally set colour balance. Changing it in raw data edit, I seem to be able to create any colour balance I choose afterwards to make a jpeg. However, there is no option in raw data edit to do the subtle yellow blue and green magenta changes Rob did here. Perhaps you can set those on the super control panel before doing raw data edit. Each colour mode seems to let you change those subtle balances separately (except CWB mode). I hope this helps. I'm looking at my EM5 Mk iii but EM10 Mk ii is pretty similar.

You know what? I will try to make a video on my little channel to show what I wrote in the other answer.

ISO is really the only thing that affects raw. White balance is set in raw, but not baked in. So you can change white balance of raw files in post processing.

Merry Christmas, Villiam!

Thanks for the info.

Hi. Sorry I haven't replied to your questions yet. I'm working on a video to address it. Short answer is I don't use correction gels for correcting color of light output. In a studio, maybe, but not in the field. Typically there are too many variables when in the real world.

Hi, Wally. I addressed your question in a new video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MX2lE_DwY4U.html I'm not sure if it will solve your problem, but take a look. Also, another viewer suggested changing the the EVF brightness to Auto.

@@RobTrek thanks so much Rob, a real gent as always. Hope you have had a good Christmas and here's wishing you all the best for New Year.

Hi, Sergyey. I answered your question in a new video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MX2lE_DwY4U.html Hope it helps. -Rob

It is helpful. Thanks a lot!

You have to pretty much rely on the histogram in PAS. Since the camera will adjust at least one of the three exposure settings automatically, the ev meter will only work as the exposure comp indicator.

Glad it helped. You are probably in silent shutter mode (heart+square icon). Change your shutter mode to mechanical (square or diamond+square).

@@RobTrek yes!!! thank you so much. I was quite disapointed because I coundn' t find the solution and I was limited. =)
