Goodbye Nikon I'm Leaving you for a Younger and Slimmer Camera

After my recent Darwin trip with my Nikon camera and lenses I've decided to upgrade to a younger slimmer camera.

I traded in my Nikon gear and went Micro Four thirds with the Olympus OMD EM-1.

Micro Four Thirds (MFT or 4/3) cameras are not only smaller and lighter than a DSLR on the market, but they also have DSLR like abilities. You can take gorgeous images, even in low light, it has incredible speed, and lots of high end features, in my opinion the Olympus OM-D E-M1 is the best Micro Four Thirds camera that you can buy.

Benefits are:

• Smaller camera (less than half the size and weight)
• Lighter and smaller lenses
• Portability
• DSLR ike features 
• Longer lense focal lengths
• Built-in Wi-Fi
• Control your camera from your smartphone
• Tilting LCD touch screen monitor (screen touch shooting)
• Silent Mode
• 5-axis image stabilisation
•  And more . . .

Sorry Nikon its over, don't call.

Merry Christmas to Me . . .

The Best camera is the one you have with you when you make pictures (see previous post)

The 3Gs camera's resolution is 3 megapixels with a 2.8 lens and has auto ISO and it will let you choose which spot you want to focus on simply by touching on the screen. It's reported to have so-so low light performance but the image below captured hand held in full night well after sunset is proof of its ability.
