Podcasts about micro four thirds

Most camera companies make something great in 2026, which is why choosing one has become so hard. After covering Sony, Nikon, and Canon in part one, we looked at the brands taking less obvious paths. Fujis are cameras people actually want to carry. Great JPEGs, fun film simulations, and a commitment to APS-C and GFX instead of full frame. Lumix offers some of the best value in hybrid cameras now that its autofocus has caught up. Leica is having incredible sucess with the Q series. OM System keeps the original promise of Micro Four Thirds alive with small lenses, rugged bodies, and excellent reach, but its aging sensor technology is becoming hard to ignore. Hasselblad delivers a more refined shooting experience than GFX but you pay for it in price and enormous files. DJI continues to push drones, compact cameras, and stabilization forward. And Blackmagic is easy to overlook if you only follow hybrid cameras, but it remains deeply embedded in live event productions. Full disclosure: we've worked with Lumix and Hasselblad, and some of the cameras discussed were provided as loaners. There isn't one winner here. These brands make sense for different people, which is more useful than pretending one spec sheet can settle the argument.

I started testing a full frame camera, and I can see some advantages (specifically for wide shots) but there are still so many things Micro Four Thirds can do that full frame cameras can't...and this is mostly related to lenses...so I'm starting to flip my focus from selecting CAMERAS, to figuring out solutions for lenses.

This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,006, July 1, 2025. Today's theme is, "The Enduring 20-Megapixel Sensor." I'm Derrick Story. Opening Monologue Olympus released their first 20MP sensor back in 2016. Since then, their Live MOS or the stacked BSI Live MOS sensors have been inside their Micro Four Thirds cameras. And even though Panasonic has a 25 MP version, OM System has stuck with theirs. Today, you'll discover why. All of this and more on this week's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

How I Adapt Old Lenses to Micro Four Thirds

I already talked about why I'm not investing in Canon EF glass any more, but a lot of people really like Canon FD lenses, and so I thought I would give them a try...but half of the ones I bought stink...and I actually mean that LITERALLY.

Ja hoor, we zijn er lekker in gedoken. Sensorformaten! Fullframe, APS-C, micro four thirds, middenformaat – allemaal termen waar je van gaat duizelen. Maar eerlijk is eerlijk: iedereen heeft er een mening over. En wij dus ook. Of nou ja… we twijfelen ook gewoon keihard. Want wat is nou eigenlijk het beste sensorformaat? En bestaat dat überhaupt? We praten over gewicht, dynamisch bereik, je portemonnee, cropfactoren, en waarom Niels ineens een middenformaatcamera test terwijl Michiel stiekem al zit te googelen op een analoge fullframe. Want ja, een grotere sensor klinkt lekker, maar wat levert het écht op?Voor de duidelijkheid: je maakt geen betere foto's door een grotere sensor, maar je kúnt wel het idee krijgen dat je ineens Magnum-waardig bent. Vooral als je portretfoto's maakt met een middenformaatlens waar je in kunt wonen. We bespreken de voor- én nadelen van de verschillende formaten, delen onze eigen ervaringen. Want daar gaat het uiteindelijk om: wat werkt voor jou? En waar word je blij van? Spoiler: het is waarschijnlijk gewoon die camera die je al hebt.

This is The Digital Story Podcast #989, March 4, 2025. Today's theme is, "A Day in the City with the OM-3." I'm Derrick Story. Opening Monologue Like for many of you, the OM System OM-3 was delivered to my doorstep this last Friday. What perfect timing! I had an all-day adventure in San Francisco lined up with the family for Saturday. I charged up the battery, mounted the 14-42mm EZ zoom, and hit the road. What happened next surprised this seasoned Micro Four Thirds photographer. Find out why on this week's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

The next Supermoon is just around the corner (October 17th), and it's expected to be the biggest and brightest supermoon of 2024. If you want to capture it in all its glory, you need the right gear. OM SYSTEM's Micro Four Thirds cameras and M.Zuiko Digital lenses are perfect for the job. Why? The 2x crop factor doubles your equivalent focal length—so, a 300mm lens becomes a 600mm! That means more zoom without the heavy, bulky gear. So, if you're gearing up for the Supermoon, OM SYSTEM has you covered. Check out their full line of cameras and lenses at explore.omsystem.com/petapixel, or visit your local authorized OM SYSTEM retailer.

Peter shares his thoughts on the state of the industry, how film's resurgence has affected his business, how he manages to compete with U.S. retailers and camera brands on the sales front, and even shares some stories from when Chris and Jordan used to work in his store.

Touting Panasonic's new LUMIX S9 camera, a representative was quoted saying that Micro Four Thirds sensors are more difficult to understand than full-frame sensors, especially for people with “low camera literacy.” That piqued our interest, because many photographers assume that a full-frame sensor is just inherently better. But is that true? And is it really that confusing? We also touch on LUTs, which Panasonic is pushing on the S9 by dedicating a button to choosing different look-up tables for creative color rendering in camera.

When a listener asked Chris, Jordan, and Jaron to share how their careers (all the highs and lows) have gone over the years, the team decided it was worthy of a main story segment to itself. Speaking of creative journeys, OM SYSTEM has announced their last call for entries in their contest and community-based project Tell Your Story which is aimed at promoting and showcasing the capabilities of the OM SYSTEM OM-5 camera. Renowned for its class-leading performance and weather-sealed design capable of handling any environment, the OM-5 offers remarkable computational features such as Live ND and Starry Sky AF. Building upon the success of last year's initiative, Tell Your Story II strives to identify and empower emerging talents to advocate for OM SYSTEM products within their social communities. Through March 25th, 2024, photography enthusiasts of every skill level are invited to participate in Tell Your Story II. The project will be showcased on Instagram, on the @omsystem.generation channel. Candidates selected for Tell Your Story II will receive support from OM SYSTEM, including the OM-5 camera, lenses, and mentorship  by esteemed OM SYSTEM Ambassadors, including Brooke Bartleson and Peter Baumgarten, to bring their projects to life. Details about the program and how to participate can be found at explore.omsystem.com/petapixel. Did you know that Chris Niccolls was very disinterested in photography for most of his young life? Did you know that Jordan Drake used the money from a canceled trip to Europe to buy a video camera, forever changing the course of his career? Did you know Jaron got his start working at a photographic lighting company? Humble beginnings all, and the three share what sparked them to continue in the photography and video space, how teaching is important to them, and how that despite the lows (of which there are many), the highs still get them excited about every day. Burnout is real, but the trio explain how they either avoided it or worked through it to be where they are today. We use Riverside to record The PetaPixel Podcast in our online recording studio.

We would once again like to thank our podcast sponsor, OM SYSTEM! Professional wildlife photographer Andy Rouse recently took the OM-1 Mark II and the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 150-600 F5.0-6.3 IS on safari to Kenya's Masai Mara and Samburu National Parks. Check out his first impressions of both the camera and the lens, and view his photos from the adventure today: Check out explore.omsystem.com/petapixel to learn more about the new OM-1 Mark II, the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 150-600 F5.0-6.3 IS, and the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6 II. Pre-orders are live right now, with shipments beginning in late February. Every half-decade or so, medium format experiences some kind of "resurgence," and thanks mainly to Fujifilm's excellent GFX 100 II, many photographers might be interested in jumping over to the large sensor cameras. With Hasselblad's update to the 907x system last week, the team discusses where each medium format system resides, who they're for, what are they are good at (and what do manufacturers want them to do), and what the future of medium format might be. Is it doing just fine on its current trajectory? Would it be a fantastic platform to bring back a TLR-style camera body? Is it the one place a DSLR still makes sense? Chris, Jordan, and Jaron debate.

This is The Digital Story Podcast #929, Jan. 9, 2024. Today's theme is "The Elephant in the Room - Nikon Zf vs Olympus OM-1." I'm Derrick Story. Opening Monologue Typically, Micro Four Thirds photographers aren't concerned by new full-frame camera announcements. They know what they have, and they like it. But the Nikon Zf seems to have upset the apple cart a bit. I've been getting mail citing reviews, defections, and the relevance of MFT photography in light of all this. So let's talk about it. Let's go head to head with the Olympus OM-1 and Nikon Zf. Today's top story on the TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

Heute reden wir über unsere letzten Fotoausflüge, Neuanschaffungen wie Teleobjektive und Trockentauchanzüge und Neujahrsvorsätze. Zudem gibt es auch noch eine Bildkritik.----------------------------------Herzlich willkommen zum Wildlife Foto Talk mit Levi Fitze, Nicolas Stettler und Fabian Fopp. Wir sind drei junge Naturfotografen aus der Schweiz und werden auf diesem Kanal alle zwei Wochen über diverse Themen rund um die Wildtierfotografie plaudern. Dabei geht es unsere Reisen und Fotoausflüge, bestimmte Aufnahmetechniken, interessante Tierarten und auch etwas um das verwendete Equipment.

This is The Digital Story Podcast #910, August 29, 2023. Today's theme is "When It's Bright, Pack Light." I'm Derrick Story. Opening Monologue One of the great things about summer is that there's lots of light. And this is particularly beneficial to Micro Four Thirds photographers who have plenty of compact, super-sharp optics available. That means we can cover just about any outside event with gear that fits in a handbag. I share one such example on this week's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

If full frame camera prices come down (to an "affordable" level) you might ask "Do we even NEED Micro Four Thirds any more?" In this episode I'll cover the reasons I think it's good to keep BOTH systems (if you have full frame already, the cost of adding Micro Four Thirds isn't a barrier, and if you have Micro Four Thirds, full frame is getting close!) P.S. I mentioned current pricing of the Sony A7rii, but said A7ii…but I DO NOT RECOMMEND the A7ii for video purposes (but the A7rii might be a possibility, as long as you're good with shooting in the cropped Super 35 mode, because the 4K is good in that mode, but not in full frame mode). Also, after some testing, I no longer recommend DSLRs (such as the Canon 6d which I mentioned) because they don't work well LIVE with HDMI switchers, such as the ATEM Mini, etc.

“Do I really replace lenses or just buy more of them? That's the major question,” says Kevin Rickert, B&H Photo's Senior Sales Trainer for cameras and lighting, in the heat of discussion for our Notable Lens Releases of 2022 and 2023 episode. Listen in as we assess the latest crop of optics from Canon, FUJIFILM, Hasselblad, Nikon, OM SYSTEM, Sigma, Sony, and Tamron. The full list makes for a lot of glass, so we've narrowed things down to a focused selection of primes and zooms spanning medium format, full frame, cropped sensor, and Micro Four Thirds formats. As in our annual Cameras of the Year show from December, we mix up the tech talk with practical anecdotes to help match lenses and customers based on user experience. Among the many threads of our chat, we commend the release of some new and different focal lengths—from Nikon's 26mm pancake to Sony's 20-70mm f/4 G-series zoom to Tamron's 50-400mm f/4.5-6.3 telephoto. “Maybe the 26mm will be the new 28, which is great,” says Rickert. “We like choices, and a lot of brands are going this route with their lens offerings.” Guest: Kevin Rickert Episode Timeline 1:45: Canon RF 135mm f/1.8L IS USM lens and its unique cat-eye bokeh. 6:32: Four new Canon RF-S lenses for APS-C cameras, plus RF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM and RF 1200mm f/8L IS USM super-telephotos for wildlife and sports. 9:20: FUJIFILM XF 56mm f/1.2 R WR for portraits, XF 150-600mm f/5.6-8 R LM OIS WR for wildlife and sports, XF 18-120mm f/4 LM PZ WR for everyday use, XF 30mm f/2.8 R LM WR, and FUJIFILM GF 20-35mm f/4 R WR lens for medium format. 12:42: Hasselblad XCD 38mm f/2.5 V, XCD 55mm f/2.5 V, and XCD 90mm f/2.5 V lenses. 18:49: Nikon Z 26mm f/2.8 pancake lens, Z 85mm f/1.2 S for portraits, 400mm f/2.8 TC VR S, and Z 600mm f/4 TC VR SZ super telephotos for wildlife and sports. 25:06: Episode break 25:58: OM SYSTEM 90mm f/3.5 Macro IS Pro lens, and the benefit of IP53 weather sealing. 31:43: Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG DN Art for L-mount and E-mount systems, plus rerelease of lenses for X-mount and Z-mount systems. 36:06: Sony FE 50mm f/1.4 GM, FE PZ 16-35mm F4 G, FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II, FE 20-70mm f/4 G lenses. 43:58: Tamron 20-40mm f/2.8 Di III VXD, 50-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD lenses. Guest Bio: Kevin Rickert is B&H Photo's Senior Sales Trainer for Cameras and Lighting. It's Rickert's job to collaborate with camera and lens manufacturers to create curriculum for training B&H's world-renowned sales staff. He knows his stuff! Born and raised in New York and self-described as a ballpark journeyman, Rickert has traveled to—and photographed—all Major League baseball stadiums in the United States since 2008. Earlier this year, he helped to represent the B&H Sales Team, in Nashville, at Imaging USA 2023―where he discovered how hot Nashville hot chicken, really is!

If you're curious about animal detection autofocus in your camera, then you've come to the right place. We've been curious about it too. What's more, each camera system takes its own approach to how to do it. And it can be very confusing to some folks. At other times, it can be really frustrating. So we're looking at animal detection on various camera systems. You can view this article and much more with minimal ads in our brand new app for iOS, iPadOS, and Android. What is Animal Detection Animal detection differs depending on the camera system. A lot of them incorporate animal and bird detection together. Sony is the major full-frame camera manufacturer that doesn't do this. But basically, it tells the autofocus to look at the scene and prioritize autofocusing on an animal instead of a human, bike, car, etc. Lucky for you, we've reviewed tons of cameras that do this. For the record, we've tested all of the cameras that we're talking about in this post. Canon With Canon cameras, there are a few ways to autofocus. The system can look at a scene and recognize certain things. If you set it to animal vs. human, it will detect all sorts of animals. We've used the Canon EOS R5, Canon EOS R6, Canon EOS R7, and the Canon EOS R3 in animal detection. Each time, it has found both birds and mammals with no issues in animal detection mode. Practically speaking, this means that you're less likely to miss shots. You can be walking around in the forest and have your camera set to animal mode with ease. You can be photographing chipmunks one moment and hawks another moment. Otherwise, you'd need to physically move the autofocus point over the subject to get focus. That's often much harder when it comes to focusing on a bird through trees. But a system that recognized the warbler in the trees can get it faster. Best Cameras for Animal Detection and Bird Detection: Canon EOS R5 Canon EOS R6 Canon EOS R3 Canon EOS R7 Nikon Update September 2022: The Nikon Z9 is the most innovative camera when it comes to animal detection for Nikon. It bundles birds and animals together. We've used the Z9 in our review, and found it to be much better than the Z7 II and Z6 II, which only have detection for basically pets. We've also known that the Z9 has improved with autofocus updates. Best Cameras for Animal Detection and Bird Detection: Nikon Z9 Sony Sony has a complicated but effective system. If you take the Sony a1 or even an older camera like the Sony a7r III into the forest to photograph birds and animals, you'll need to set the camera accordingly. The Sony a1, in bird-detection mode, won't do so well getting your dog in focus when you turn your camera to it. As a result, you'll have to go quickly into the menu system and then switch it to animal focus priority. It also works well with the Sony a7 IV. We've done this, and it's been pretty annoying at times. Best Cameras for Animal Detection and Bird Detection: Sony A1 Sony a7 IV Fujifilm Update September 2022: Fujifilm has finally entered the wildlife world! They separate animal from bird detection and have two cameras that can do it. There's the XH2, which is slower than its older sibling, the XH2s. The latter is designed for speed, and with the right lenses, it can perform very well. Best Cameras for Animal Detection and Bird Detection: Fujifilm XH2s Panasonic With a camera like the Panasonic S5, you'll be able to use animal-autofocus detection to photograph birds. There are also Micro Four Thirds cameras like the G9 and GH5 II that can do it. It does a pretty good job overall, but effectively tracking the subjects isn't as good as it is with Sony and Canon. Even when you adjust the focusing profiles, it just doesn't have the same hit rate. Best Cameras for Animal Detection and Bird Detection: Panasonic S5 Panasonic GH5 II OM System The Olympus OMD EM1x has autofocus for animals and birds. But it's really not that great. According to our review: “For wildlife, I walked away very disappointed at the fa...

Released in the spring of 2021, the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro comes to refresh the original 6K model. And it comes as the third entry into the widely famous Pocket Cinema range. With the original 6K, the firm moved from the smaller Micro-Four-Thirds size to a much larger Super35 size sensor and the Canon EF mount. And while noteworthy, the original model had its flaws. https://photographypx.com/blackmagic-pocket-cinema-camera-6k-pro-review/ Video https://youtu.be/JCE-v9dY0BQ  

Initially released in the fall of 2016, Olympus' EPL-8 replaces the previously released ELP-7, released two years prior, and marks another installment into the company's backbone PEN series. The PEN lineup is acclaimed for stylish design-forward cameras based on the compact Micro Four Thirds mount. https://photographypx.com/olympus-e-pl8-review/ Video https://youtu.be/sQn8ezI_zXM

Panasonic is one of the original manufacturers to initially pioneer the Micro Four Thirds realm of compact feature-rich mirrorless cameras. However, now, in 2019, that changes. The release of the Panasonic S1 marks a new lineage for the manufacturer and the first to feature a full-frame sensor. https://photographypx.com/panasonic-lumix-dc-s1-review/ Video https://youtu.be/_RGfEk2EEXA Lightroom Presets https://bit.ly/mobilelightroompresets
