Pana GX 80, at Caramulo Motorfestival 2017, I was press at this event, and first time I used the GX80 on this kind of event, took it has B camera, ended up being the one I used more.
AF for stills, even afc + tracking works quite nicely, thinking on getting a 2nd m43 body and go full m43.

Small Sample, sooc jpegs

A few from me over a fine autumn here, all with Olympus. Usually the 12-40mm f2.8 or the 25mm f1.8.

Glad I found this thread. I got an Oly D10 II because of problems carrying my K1 kit during a trip earlier this year. The Oly, only 16megatickles, and tiny, may be 100% satisfactory for all the photography I do, not just travel. The 12-100mm f4 Oly is a really amazing lens, one of the best zooms I've ever used, results that easily match up with my Pentax 16-85mm, but smaller with a longer FL range, near macro focusing, and a constant aperture. The three images below were taken with the Oly and, as I recall, the 12-100mm (don't have the EXIF data handy).

Nice pictures and welcome to the M43 side of things. Isnt the weight savings nice. that lens is also my favorite, such a great all around lens.

The micro43 gear is close to all I need (like so many other users). If I could afford the sealed stuff maybe it could take over - but the EM5 wasn't my cup of ..cocoa and the upper Lumix line is in flux with screen and shutter combinations. Maybe soon, or maybe just Pentax.

Here's our local park getting psychedelic - colors are pretty accurate, the 5" of rain in the hills reached here with a lot of sediment!

the first image was taken in the lobby of a 19th century hotel in the ghost town of Silver City, Idle-Hoe, showing some of myriad antiques that clutter every part of the ground floor. The second image is a short distance away "down town." This building is probably used sometimes, judging from the fans in the upstairs windows. FYI: Many buildings are owned and used as summer homes, including the hotel which is open for overnight guests and serves meals during the summer. The town is closed in the winter, only accessible by snowmobile - - maybe. (Oly 10 mk II, Pana 7-14mm & Oly 12-100mm)

As long as we're on fisheyes - here is the $60ish Mil-0838 fisheye on a GX1, same place as yesterday give or take a few feet.
Given the price of a used GX1 this is about $150 total - not bad

An abstract, or at least a near abstract of duckweed stirred up as it flows through a culvert.
