4/3 or other mirrorless for UV macro
Hey you 4/3 and mirrorless types, I have a question.
You may know I do insect photography in the field. Often while taking pictures out there in the prairies I consider what these flowers look like to the bees, who can see well into the UV range, and butterflies which have like 9 types of opsins and can see all sorts of things we can't. Mostly I think about UV in terms of another hard bump on my nose which is probably another carcinoma....
But the 4/3 system is really good for UV conversion from places like Lifepixel. Which brand has a good reputation for macro? I've looked a bit on B&H and there are a lot of options. I'm not looking for studio work, so the 4X Mitakon lenses are unlikely to be useful hand-held in the breezy days. A standard decent macro which can be used for UV shots would be ideal - a EVF would be ideal, since I'm in the sun.
Any suggestions? Money is secondary, but I'm unlikely to get a $2K camera body for this. Focus speed, confirmation, EVF and image quality are important.
