You two are the best! Great to see you together.

Its true i tend to shoot raw and edit what images i like and delete the rest I like these photowalk chats great fun

Great video guys. I shoot in raw but also don’t spend much time editing generally. I actually start by pressing the ‘Auto’ button in Lightroom, which tends to get the exposure settings pretty much spot on most times. I regularly change the vibrancy & saturation, as Lightroom Auto tends to boost them too much.

Happy to see you together, thank you 😏

Thanks!

Great to watch you guys again. Very much enjoyed it. But why did you both carry rather sizable camera bags for small cameras?

Nice to see you two again together.

A couple of points. First, a raw file is an unprocessed image, which mean that all kinds of things haven't been baked in. This includes importantly black and white points, tone curves, colour balance and so on. Whet you do to a raw file is processing, not 'post-processing' (which would be what comes after processing). That's a small point. The bigger point is about exposure. Many photographers wrongly think that 'exposure' means how light or dark the image looks. It doesn't, it means how much light gets to the sensor. In a raw file you have complete control over how the exposure translates to how light or dark the final image looks (technically the 'lightness'). With a JPEG (so called) 'correct' exposure is one that produces 'correct' lightness, because the processing is fixed. With a raw file 'correct' exposure is the one that produces most scene information in the raw file, generally the largest exposure (most light) that you can get whilst keeping to your constraints for shutter speed and aperture (generally set by motion blur and DOF). For many scenes, ones without bright highlights this would lead to an exposure that would be 'overexposed' in JPEG. The easiest way to get this is ETTR using a histogram in your VF, if your camera gives that.

I’m really enjoying these photo walk conversations you’ve been doing. Please keep them coming!

haha! Awesome two of my favorites! Awesome stuff guys.

Sense this video looks a bit silly now 😂 given all the lenses the system has now plus you haven’t even used it

How do you know Finnish Photographers ? Just look for those that walk around and wave with Cameras 😉

Hi Matti and Peter, thank you for a nice video 😃 I am also a RAW shooter. I like to wait a bit before I upload and edit the photo images, it is a bit like in "the good old days" when I shot analog color slide film, you get the correct exposure and cropping in the Camera, waited for the film to be processed, which could be from about one hour in express professional processing or the cheaper way, where you could wait for one day or a few days, Black & White analog processing took longer time, which I did myself. When I got the color slide film back, I looked with a loupe or a special viewer for which photos to keep, cut those out of the film strip, set then in a slide holder and watch them in a slide projector, that could maybe take from 5 minute to half and hour, that is about the same time I use when I edit my digital photo images in software on my computer from one shoot, if I will make some photos Black & White I can use a little bit longer to get it "perfect" right. The biggest difference from the analog time to now, that is I have much more fun now with photography and I watch and enjoy my photos much more now.

can agree that processing RAW is fun. its fun messing with black and white or the colour rendering in photolab. i do it on good photos ive taken but time to time the adjustments i do, when i paste them on to the other photos, they usually sometimes look far better than the initial one. so yeah, its fun iif you have the software you like doing it on.

Thanks for making this video. That lens was the kit lens that came with the Canon EF that my grandfather bought for me in 1976. I am planning to switch to Nikon Z mirrorless soon and will definitely get an adapter to try this piece of Canon glass on it.

Thanks Matti for having me! It was a lot of fun.

Hi Matti, I really enjoyed the chat you had with Peter. I sometimes turn a day photo into a night photo in post processing, it's a lot of fun. It was good to hear Peter say that he spends 30-60 Seconds on editing, some people spend a lot of there time editing. It was good to hear you say that you don't edit every photo you take Matti. I used to think that you had to edit every photo when I started out in photography. Lovely chat Matti and the photos you and Peter took, thank you 😊

Post processing can be fun. But in camera processing can also be fun tweaking it here and there over time until you get it just the way you want it out of camera can be super satisfying.

Seems good but honnestly and as said in a film (guess which without usage of google) when the legend is better than real you write the legend… so I definitely prefer Nikon 105 f2.5 and some versions are cheap.

Yes, m43, a fun camera system that bring creativity and spontaneity. The other (unnamed) is work and fighting the camera. Albeit, since you put in all this work (also work in lugging it along) the picture have to be better. ..... right??

Great video! Q; how much white board do you suggest - 3cm?

Price is relative, but certainly people is not willing to pay more for the same 10 years old sensor, not BSI, not Stacked, not global Shutter, not bringing any real improvement in dynamic range, warping when moved quickly in video. Users are just tired of being offered reboxed cameras with almost no improvement, always made of crap plastics, not even address glaring issues, like the tripod mount breaking down in previous generations (OM5) Let's be honest. What is killing M43 is not the size of the sensor, but technology a decade behind what we see offered in the FF market. I have the EM5mkll since it was launched and I still remember how ahead of the times it was: first to have Live Time and Live composite, first to have High Resolution, compact, fast, feature complete, fast shooting, built like a tank, small, with good batteries, a large viewfinder and a high resolution side hinged backscreen, mirrorless, while being weather sealed. No FF was even close to those technologies, whatever the price, and everyone copied that EM5Mkll in the following years. Every product photographer had one for macro work back then. Thanks to its lens adapting ability. It was just 1150€ at the time, which was a perfectly acceptable price for those coming from an entry level DSLR.

50 for me. It has the right amount of background compression and the face is not as distorted as with the 35mm. Plus bokeh at 35 is good but 50mm bokeh is better in my eyes. Bought the Samyang 50mm 1.4 II at a good price. Not the fastest AF but managable. And great price. My most used lens.

That bundle of pipes costs more than my camera lol

is the antialiasing on the gr iii's video that bad?

I traveled for three weeks in Vietnam and Cambodia with the EM-1 Mark III and the EM5 Mark III. I took the 12-100mm F4, 12-45mm F4 Pro, 25mm F1.2, and 70-300mm lenses with me, but the most used one was the 12-100mm F4. After two weeks of travel, I was so exhausted from carrying the EM1 Mark III with the 12-100mm lens that I switched to the EM5 Mark III with the 12-45mm F4 and never looked back. That combination was so fun to use and reminded me of what MFT was all about. It is a shame that both Olympus and Panasonic drifted away from the MFT ethos when they decided to compete with full-frame cameras head-to-head. That’s what doomed them, especially Olympus, because at least Panasonic had the video makers' market. Nowadays, I don't see any reason to buy an MFT camera unless you are a dead-serious videographer. Maybe one day we will see a GX9II or LX100 Mark III from Panasonic or a baby OM-1 from OM Systems, but the chances of that are close to zero.

Would you use the 27mm f1.2 lens for half landscape - half astro...? I happen to live in a mountainous area with nearly no light pollution...

I bought the Viltrox 23mm F1.4, quite unsure if I shouldn't have bought 27mm f1.2... But after a few days, that lens was a pretty permanent fixture on my A6700. Its quite a good lens for small money! missing seals are unfortunate though. But its a fabulous good weather choice. I never found enough impressive photos from the 27mm f1.2, to buy that lens yet. I just did order the 75mm f1.2

The problem for me when looking at an mtf camera is that they simply are too close in price to larger sensors. The physical size isn't that dissimilar either anymore, meaning you need to find some kind of specific value in the smaller sensor as an advantage in order to really make it worthwhile. Either the telephoto reach or the deeper DOF for macro, the faster readout speeds for video or something to that effect, otherwise for a similar cost and size/weight you could have a bigger sensor and it just doesn't make sense to not buy that larger sensor otherwise

Hello could you review the new Sigma 500 mm f5.6 for L-mount?

I’ve got both. Just love small cameras.

This thing is way bigger than my Sirui, which works great! Those spikes look like a pain. Pass

I am in Charlotte NC USA, the temperature is 98 degrees, the a/c is working and I am sitting in my favorite chair reading a book.😊

I just got the Lumix G100D and wondered if you have a video for its settings....Stills only. Everyone is talking about the video and not much about still photography.

Unfortunately Arca Swiss is just a quick release system, but there is no standard for the size? There might be compatibility issue if using multiple products from different manufacturers.

Its so lovely to here you talk nicly about MFT. Yes, you are right, its fun, its against the mainstream, but fun and easy. Its good enough, but MFT lacks a corner right now. I really want a street photo campaign. A cooperative campaign among the manufacturers. Unfortunatelly its late in the summer now to start ut, so next spring. Well, campaign centered around Leica D-Lux8, a similar Leica with lens mount, Lumix cameras that is like the S9 and one as the ricoh GR3, but in MFT of course, and some other tiny fun cameras and social mecia video centric tinys, Olympus with PEN-F2pro, PEN-M3, PEN-L12, OM-10 and a cheep stripped version maybe called OM-50. and a vlogging camera PEN-V(?) with mostly vlogging centric best OM IBIS and light as a PEL-L12. and I also want Olympus sorry OMDS to make a GR3 competitor with top IBIS, fixed 1,8 lens, and classic oly style. Together with this, i wish that all MFT lens manufacturers make one or two tiny lenses, OM of course weather sealed, and Leica as their speciality quality, metal, style. And Sigma and Lumix with what they are good at. I want it to arrive with a bang this comming winter and spring. Ohh, please Camera God. I pray for this. Give the world this peacefull and joyfull tiny world. I am so sad that OM System dont compete in tiny PEN world right now (sorry Oly PEN-EP7)

Hi Matti, thanks for having variety on you Channel, it was nice to see this Heipi W28 Tripod. The dedicated phone Clamp is a great idea especially the Panoramic feature. As most Smartphones have a Panoramic Mode. Doing panoramic shots hand held doesn't always produce good results but with this Panoramic setting you will have less blurry photos than hand held. Nice one Matti, thankyou. 😊

It is rare that I use tripod, I do some times use it for fx night photography. Now when I have the Sony A7RV with improved IBIS I use tripod even less. The Arca Swiss system are not my "cup of tea", there are better systems, which are more secure and easier to use. For tripod photography I use the excellent Novoflex system. Have a nice weekend Matti ☺

Does anyone have an experience with using MicroSD card with an SD Adapter for Lumix GX1?

Which one do you think is more fun?

I felt you could have better articulated some reasons why shooting with a 28 has benefits or different impacts on the results. Didn’t hear much of that.

Thanks!

Can I attach external Microphone to this camera?

I'm one of those that can't use an evf, I can get a replacement focusing screen for the K1, I've used live view and don't mind, looks like I need a K1 MK2 in my future.

Thank you sir for the most excellent demo / review 👍

Good review.

Honestly i got it for the astrotracer mainly , yes i know it’s not as good as a dedicated astrorig ,but have you seen the price of those? And im neither a scientist or a professional who makes money of it.

Nothing compact about this lens just because you compare it to the 50-400. This lens is just as unwieldy and intimating looking to people.

26mp M-RAW Its a great feature, with detail thats more like 35-40mp but slightly reduced highlights dynamic range. I use it a lot actually

would you go for a 35mm or 40mm for a one lens setup for landscape, streets and hikes? I looking at the ttartisan 27mm f2.8 and samyang 24mm f2.8 on a Sony A6000. Considering these two due to budget and size as its nice and compact
