Terrific images! Especially love the third and fourth. Look forward to more from you

Another one of my converts rose , he bought something off me and in the ensuing chat I told him about Olympus . Six months later and he’s fully converted and doing better than me

Olympus might need to pay you commission

I don't know about doing better than you - your birds are superb!

Just a Nik conversion of a little waterfall at Henley Lake. Just love being to handhold this kind of shot!

I agree with all but your last sentence Geoff. You were indeed a major part of the reason I changed from Canon to Olympus and you were kind enough to offer help. Doing better than you ... no no no! Your bird images are superb. Give me time though!!!! (Only joking I am not as committed as you)

Will hopefully be doing some landscapes in a few weeks off to Dorset for a long awaited holiday , then hopefully Turkey in sept

Shag (cormorant) at Clive this afternoon. It seemed quite calm, as this was with the 12 - 100 f/4, so I was quite close, although this is cropped as well.

I'm rapt with them too! Thanks

northern wheatear from couple of weeks ago, my aperture had reset to f11 when I took this ( probably knocked it while walking ) so hand held at 1/80th sec with the 100-400 shows how versatile these cameras are

just acquired a kenko 1.4HD t.c to use with my nikon 300mm f4 afs lens on the olympus 1-mkiii body ,obviously M/F but this is first shot with it handheld .. so its looking good gives me a bit of extra reach ,pleased with this first try out

couple more with the same rig as above both M/F through double glazing

TT artisans 35mm f/1.4 on Olympus M5 Mk2. Exif not coming up .... probably f/1.8, but might be f/5.6, but don't think so. Need to take a notebook when using manual lenses.

Same gear as above.

couple from today a visit to the tern breeding colony on anglesey , a very hard place to access and probably the furthest point west in Wales ,next stop America . . a good day out with a a couple of hundred keeper shots out of 500+ taken . all hand held sat on the shingle beach

I've been lurking here for some time, admiring the work of you all, but unable to contribute due to serious health concerns. Some of that is easing enough that I can once again at least play at what I've enjoyed for almost 50 years.

I'd also like to ask the Olympus users here an equipment question. I chose the E-M10 mkII for its controls and tilt, rather than articulating, screen. Couldn't be happier with it, even with my large hands. The issue I'm having is with one particular lens: the 12-40 2.8 Pro. I bought Oly and Panasonic lenses, and of those 4 lenses only the 12-40 hunts and can be slow to acquire focus. Oddly, all 4 focused instantly on a Pany GX9 I tried, as did the other 3 on the E-M10ii. Anyone ever encountered this before? Or maybe I'm just looking at an incompatibility between this particular body and lens =\

Anyway, a few images from right out the front door and into the garden patch. Hope to contribute more as time goes by.
