Olympus OM Micro Four Thirds camera!

I bought a OM-D with 12-35 mm f/2.8, 45mm f/1.8, and 75mm f/1.8 six months ago. It is so fun to shoot and easy to carry around, that I haven't used my 5D Mark II since purchasing the OM-D.

That's an awesome set up you got there It certainly is a fun camera to shoot with

well the arora was good last night, and gave the OMD a shot at it. I ended up with the ISO being set too high, but over all not too bad.

Looks pretty, where was that at? Montana (from your location) or what? Love the purple. And meh, I wouldn't worry too much 'bout the ISO being too high, you can see the gist of it, it sure looks good at web size anyway!

yup my front yard in NW Montana at about 3am. Yup I know it does not look too bad a web size and I know better for next time

what ISO did you take this? btw colors btw... and that's your front yard? man!!

I ask coz even though the E-M5 can take great photos with very good IQ in normal use, with long exposures I find it quite noisy at least relative to my old D700.

I think I increased the saturation a bit but still I can see noise on the side of the photo near the green light. This was taken at ISO 200 15seconds

I have had my OM for a year and have not done too much with longer night shots with it. ISO was 2800 IIRC 17mm F1.8 @ 2.8 for about 4 seconds. I

Where was that taken? Was that Kobe?

Yes indeed this was taken in Kobe

Recent shot with the om-d from this past weekend. Was treated to a nice sunset.

Starting to sell off my things to convert to this camera

Awesome colors!

I did not want to spend quite a chunk of money for a dedicated UWA lens just yet so got myself a cheap Samyang Fisheye and I think it's pretty awesome

Really nice composition, monk3y.

sublimesun, love your shoot too. That is one heck of a dramatic sky!

SOC much better on my end tonight but mother nature was not as active this time around
