Some of you, who follow my Flickr photostream, may have noticed that from time to time I shoot with Micro Four Third cameras, or M43s. It’s fair to observe I don’t use them all the time and I tend to reserve them for particular situations. Why? Well, sometimes you end up as a resolution and …

GH3 and my new black Oly 75mm
So I’m officially a fashion victim. I decided that a GH3 with silver lenses mounted just looked odd. In particular I’ve been lusting after the Olympus 75mm lens in black rather than silver. It’s always stuck me as a lens that would be great for stills and video. I found the black version for a …
I feel a bit like this building…
Run down and cracking up… I jest but I have had a few days in bed with a nasty bout of gastro-enteritis, hence my lack of any activity this week. I’ll hopefully be back in action with plenty of photos next week. Now I just need to summon up some energy to drink my tea …
“Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop”
“A walk through a farm” is guaranteed to have UK based readers think of a straw chewing farmer shouting “GET OFF MY LAND”. However, that is of course a fictional stereotype. Most farmers aren’t like the stereotype and most are familiar with the many rights of way that dot the British countryside (and particularly so …
Panasonic GX1 and Infrared
Just before Christmas I came across a lightning deal on Amazon.co.uk on the Panasonic GX1 for £250. This is a funny old one – you are probably asking yourself why I need another camera (in retrospect, so was I). Well, I was curious about the GX1, having owned the E-P3 (a roughly contemporary camera) and …
Let it snow (again)
OK, so I take back my suggestion that it wouldn’t snow! Icing sugar at present but it doesn’t seem to be stopping… Taken with my GH3 and 12-35mm lens Update: having finally worked out how to export videos from Lightroom, here is a video of the snowfall complete with authentic noises of shivering in the …
Another trip to Whitecross Street
So again, I needed to drop a parcel in Whitecross Street, which is the nearest pickup point for the collect+ courier service “near” (or not so near) where I work. Nonetheless, if the street market is on it provides a great excuse for some fun street photography. You can really get into the crowds. Last …
Alexandra Palace
I pass “Ally Pally” every day on the way to work. It is an inspiring building, particularly in the sun. Today I found myself awake at 6:45am, the legacy of a dodgy self made curry the night before. Rather than trying to get back to sleep I decided to take advantage of the golden hour …
Huddersfield Canal
This week I found myself in Huddersfield. While I didn’t have a lot of time to take photos, I did go for two walks in the morning down the canal which ran past my hotel. Of course I took my GH3 with me. I had intended to swap between the 7-14 and the 12-35 but …
Some more shots with the GH3
This is a short post, really just to show what I’m pulling out of the GH3 IQ wise and to make a few more comments. The wifi functionality, which isn’t even running properly yet, is great. The ability to be able to hook up an ipad or android tablet as a remote viewfinder is just …
