Setup Your GH3 Like a BOSS – Part 1 of 4 Function Buttons. Other three parts on Discovermirrorless.
Our friend Amos Chapple just sent me a message: “The Atlantic photo blog have just gone live with my pictures from three trips to Iran, with the last one finishing up a couple of weeks ago. All photos shot with a GH2, hopefully I’ll be getting a new GH3 soon!”

JR: “I just wanted to share a casual low-light test I’ve done with the new SLR Magic 25mm T0.95: https://vimeo.com/61443115”
Gene: “I had just finished posting my article on what the Nex-FF camera might be, when my mind finally clicked at it all makes sense. Sony is going after Leica. Now the pricing and feature set makes perfect sense. Just updated the piece on http://preferredaperture.blogspot.com/”
Lawrence sent me that link to his E-M5 monkey shots 🙂
Andre: “I’m from Brazil and together with my wife, we left 11 months ago on a RTW trip on bikes that will take 3 years more. I sold almost all my pro Nikon gear to buy a GH2 system, a GoPro and a Sony small camcorder.
We are working hard to feature our content on TV and we have pretty good chances since I’ve already photographed as a still photographer for some major TV channels and there’s also a new law that’s good for us. A foreign channel must have at least 50% of content shot by brazilians or about Brazil.
9000km so far I’m loving my GH2 despite it’s poor performance on highlights, noise/shadow banding and continuous AF… I just don’t care anymore but it was a little bit disappointing in the beginning. I carry a 14-140 kit lens, a 20mm f1.7, a 45mm f1.8 and I gave myself a little (heavy) treat that I use for a portrait series about people that help us… a Voigtlander 17,5mm f0.95 that I love. Always shooting wide open using a Heliopan Variable ND.

There, there’s a nice clip featuring our first 3500kms. Now we are heading to Greece, Albania, Montenegro, Croatia, Bosnia and Slovenia.
Cheers!”

Why is a Sony Nex lens included in this post? Nothing against the Sony, but was this meant to be on the Sonyalpha site?
I’m sure Johansson photography’s coins in the E-M5 review will all be addressed in the O-MD Pro 🙂
Pretty glowing review of the new 14-42 kit lens. Has anyone compared the results to the 14-45, 14-42 and 14-42 PZ?
Good early reports for the 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 II zoom lens.(ephotozine tend to give almost everything at least 4/5 stars anyway.) But even without seeing reviews, I’m confident that this will be a good standard kit-zoom lens for all future Lumix m4/3 cameras. You don’t need to bet the house on a kit-lens like this: image samples I’ve seen so far look good enough, it’s light, compact, has a metal mount (this has to be confirmed though, as previous reports said it was a composite material with a metallic coating/finish?) and will be sold cheap when bundled with a camera. A GX1/2 with the 14-42 II plus the 25/1.4 and/or 45/1.8 would be a great compact and light setup: as a general use, family, travel or backup camera.
wtf is “like a BOSS”?
Like a boss makes me think of the incompetent douchebag that sits in the corner office 🙂
Andre’s project/video is amazing, I can’t even imagine doing that myself, wow!
