When it comes to corporate life it can sometimes be difficult to come to grips with the one way realities of business and how relationships can be affected. It was safe to assume that when Japan Industrial Partners (JIP) bought the Imaging Division from Olympus that it would lead to some significant changes.
Adding Context With BIF
There are many styles of bird photography and adding context with BIF can make images of small birds in-flight more interesting. This article features 15 consecutive photographs from a Pro Capture H image run of a downy woodpecker taking flight, and discusses adding context with BIF photography.
BIF Fundamentals
This article discusses three BIF fundamentals and shares some recent photographs captured handheld during the same visit to LaSalle Park in Burlington Ontario. These three fundamentals are common with a wide range of photography genres: knowledge of the subject, physical skills, and camera gear attributes. Of course there are nuances when it comes to BIF (birds-in-flight).
PRO 40-150 Choices
With the latest zoom lens introduction by OM Digital Solutions, M4/3 owners now have two M.Zuiko PRO 40-150 mm choices. This short article discusses the three key differences between these two lenses: cost, size/weight, and functionality.
Mid-Air Altercations
This article discusses photographing mid-air altercations using a combination of Bird Detection AI Subject Tracking and Pro Capture L. When I was thinking about creating this article I had very mixed emotions. On one hand I wanted to share the approach that I used to capture these images with readers. On the other hand, I was very hesitant to share these photographs as they are of very marginal quality.
Consider Lens Compatibility
It is always important to consider lens compatibility before buying a new camera body to avoid downstream disappointment. Many photographers are very excited about the introduction of new camera models as they often provide some performance upgrades and new technology when compared to previous generation cameras.
Psychographic Segmentation
This article discusses psychographic segmentation, along with some thoughts about how this technique could be applied to the camera market. While this article may be coming out of left field for some readers, it may be fun to see which psychographic segments resonate with you.
High ISO Crops
This article features high ISO crops of some handheld photographs I originally captured back in June 2019 shortly after I acquired my Olympus gear. I shoot my E-M1X up to ISO-6400 when required but seldom use ISO values above that. So, most of these photographs fall firmly in the test category.
OMDS Potential Profitability
A lot of people are wondering about OMDS potential profitability and if the company can succeed where the Olympus Imaging Division could not. This is a fair question to ask.
Hummingbird Moments
This article features some hummingbird moments that were captured handheld about six and a half years ago at Ruthven Park in Cayuga Ontario.
