Sorry I'm busy with regular work stuff at the moment & not had much time to shoot any video. TBH I jumped in & bought the camera as I saw one at a good price & I was expecting prices of used cameras would rise once others spotted how good the firmware update is. It's a lovely camera & feels just right in your hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Maze Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Bumping this thread! Just made a video showing the amazing advancements of the V3 firmware! I love using this camera. Colors are great. Ibis is amazing and now autofocus is totally reliable Simon Young, kye and ntblowz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm attracted to Olympus and have shot lots on a EM5II. Looking to jump back into the brand. Do you have any experience with the EM10III? Since I shoot manual lenses and don't dabble much with LOG, might be a good fit. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Kuźniar Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Now if they made a 7-14 2.8 with filter mount, I'm in! Otherwise I'll stay with my tokina 11-20 f/2.8 and use MF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could wait to see what Olympus introduces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since E-M10 III is so cheap but doesn't have great AF or any form of LOG, you could save a bit of money and not bother waiting for E-M5 III. Put a Speed Booster on E-M10 III instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a Speed Booster on E-M10 III instead Yeah, I got Voight primes and like them a lot. I feel I don’t need a higher end camera since my concern is shooting video. I like the GH5, but don’t love it - as I know I’m only utilizing about half of its capability the way I do things. Downgrading gear seems counterintuitive, but sort of makes sense. The 60p 4K would be hard to let go of, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatalfury Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 According to Metabones, Speedbooster XL doesn't work with EM1-II, anybody can confirm if E-M10 III is compatible with speedbooster XL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love using this camera. Colors are great. Ibis is amazing and now autofocus is totally reliable Thanks Dave! I wonder why the colors aren’t as nice on the OMLog? Hopefully you slap the 10-25 f1.7 and share the experience. I’ve been thinking about picking up an Olympus camera. Either the new EM5 or the the next EM1. I know Olympus has had a lot of feedback on their EM1X with regards to video from their initial beta field testers. The testers see value in it as a video camera as well now. I hope they take that and run with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kye Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 When I was buying my GH5 I was evaluating options and word was that Olympus had slightly better IBIS than Panasonic. Not sure what model that was, but they're not to be sneezed at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted August 26, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted August 26, 2019 E-M1 = GH5 with Sony autofocus Well, if you can live without the 10bit and 60fps that is. Dave Maze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downgrading gear seems counterintuitive, but sort of makes sense. The 60p 4K would be hard to let go of, however. I feel the same way with my GH5. I've been flirting with Panasonic since the GX80 got IBIS (for the better video codec) and also picked up a GH5 with the 12-60/2.8-4 Leica which I do almost everything with. I'm still not liking the colours as well as the old Olympus (spend more time in post colour correcting) and the size/weight of the GH5 is more noticeable compared to my old EM5-ii. I'm considering moving back once I see what the EM5-iii is about, or just grabbing two refurbished EM10-iii and selling my panasonic lenses and relying on the Olympus 12-100/4 for outdoor events and my 17 and 42 Voigtlanders on two cameras for indoors. I agree, the 60p 4k is great for getting better shutter speeds with less ND and the digital crop is handy for more reach. However I use the HLG a lot these days for the better file compression and the 10-bit, although more work with LUTs/corrections in post...
