Olympus has improved eye AF in their latest models. With the E-M1 III and OM-1 (I have both) it is quite good.

And the OM-1 is far better than those.

OMD - EM1 MK1 first impressions.

My Oly user friends tell me the secret to the menu morass on the older models (but not the OM-D E-M1) is the super menu or quick menu (I forget what it's called). Panasonic has more or less copied that feature in their later cameras (full frame and Micro 4/3).

Super Control Panel. I think I remember it working pretty well in the EM-1 also, but it's been a while. At any rate, that and the presets are the best way to get around the menus, but you still need a basic understanding of what the items do. But basic exposure stuff is right there.

Yes true ... But is the Mark 111 any better ?

You can buy mine and find out. (Upgraded to the OM-1).

But yes, it is better. The menus didn't change until the OM-1, however. I've had them all, including the X.

OM-1 is far and away the best. However, the mkI is capable of excellent results. Don't compare RAWs to JEGs, until after PP. I never shoot JPEG, but Oly JPEGs have an excellent reputation. But you need to learn the menu.

Adobe No Search Warrant Computer Invasion

Lot of that invasion of privacy and illegal searching going on these days.

Gotta keep a sharp eye out.

Most definitely. We have two M1 MacBook Airs and an M1 Pro 14”, all calibrated with a SpyderProX Elite.

Thank you very much.

I have an iMac I calibrate. The change when calibrated and custom-profiled IS subtle, but prints are noticeably more accurate.

Bill, do you know if a macbook pro--recent with M1--can be calibrated?

Olympus OMD-Em-1 problem

Good luck. It can be very frustrating learning the Oly menu system, and there are many ways things can seem not to work, and it's simply a matter of a menu setting. But that can be difficult to determine, All of the above comments are good. Hang in there.

Once you figure it out and get the hang of it, learn to use the super control panel and "My Menu".

That's how Lightroom works, too. Any collections are only pointers to the master file. Great idea for saving space.

Nikon kills the DSLR

. Is a mirrorless a non DSLR ?? It's a DSLR without a mirror...

Saying a mirrorless is a DSLR without a mirror is a redundancy. DSLR stands for "digital single lens reflex". The "reflex" refers to the mirror and prism mechanism

You Heard WRONG. What do You Call the D6 and the D780 and even the D850? Yeah Mirrorless really killed the DSLR. You People need to drop this stuff and NOW!!! You Guys act like You know more than what a Certain Corporation knows. Are You serious. You Hear a Click-Bait Story and You believe it Before it Hits what the Company States. Personally this Statement Should Make The Person Liable For Slander. Because spreading Lies is Not Right.

Well, have another Crown, or Oxy, or whatever got you on such a roll. But perhaps you'd be a happier man if you didn't take simple news items so personally. Live and let live. that goes for others, too.

And congrats on finding the woman of your dreams--that is far more important than what kind of camera you like.
