Re: In praise of Tarkovsky
Re-awakening this old thread, as there was a superb The Film Programme recently on Radio 4 about a writer's (Moira Buffini) relationship with Stalker over the years, presaging Chernobyl, amongst...

Re: Panasonic 12-35mm f/2.8
I recently got the 12-100mm f4 after using the 12-35mm and 35-100mm f2.8 pair for years. I haven't used the latter much recently, but will probably hang onto them for when I need wider apertures, and...

Re: Computer advise.
I wouldn't bother upgrading anything a few years old. There are a lot of nasty exploits around now that need regular driver updates to be safe. Beyond a few years, the manufactures no longer bother,...

Re: E-M1X Terrific Red Kite Images
Interesting. I find it's hard to get close to them when they are on the ground, they are fairly wary. But on a gentle slope, they cruise buy soaring the ridge lift, and get quite close as it's their...

Re: E-M1X Terrific Red Kite Images
It would be interesting to know more about what territory red kites prefer. My family live in Milford on Sea, and I'm surprised not to see more red kites in the New Forest when I visit. There must be...

Re: E-M1X Terrific Red Kite Images
Thanks, proper job! Very nicely processed too. I live near the Chilterns where they were re-introduced from Wales and are now thriving and spreading fast. They can soar on nothing, which is a joy to...

Re: "Trigger finger" and photography
A lot of problems like this can be due to a small knot of muscle in spasm, which tenses up the whole muscle, and thereby causing joint pain etc. The pain felt is often referred some distance away....

Re: P30 Pro - Unbelievable Quality!
My P30 arrived yesterday (non Pro), and looks very promising, but not had a chance to play with the cameras yet. Being short-sighted, I look at my phone fairly close with glasses off. Both phones are...

Re: P30 Pro - Unbelievable Quality!
This is presumably in aperture mode, which is a software simulation of DOF. The main camera is f1.8, and the B+W f1.6 max. Fun to play though.

Re: My new Oly 12-100mm vs 12-40mm RAW sharpness
I presume you mean dual IS. I've never used the 35-100 IS on my E-M1.1, the IBIS giving good results, and it's one or the other on Oly. I think you need the Mk II 35-100 to get dual IS on a Pana...

Re: Lightroom use on two pcs, anyone do it?
LR Classic isn't really designed for use on multiple PCs. I recently got a nice W10 Dell laptop which runs it well for when I'm away. Unless you keep everything on an external drive and swap over...

Re: My new Oly 12-100mm vs 12-40mm RAW sharpness
I got the 12-100 from Wex at TPS, having had the Pana 12-35 and 35-100 f2.8 pair since soon after they came out, long before Oly had the 12-40 and 40-150. They have been my main lenses alongside the...

Re: Anyone got Olympus Studio for Mac OS?
Looking at the Japan page, all cameras except the E-1 have Digital Camera Updater as download options. That suggests you might have to use either:
OLYMPUS Master 2.x (OLYMPUS Studio 2)
or

Re: Anyone got Olympus Studio for Mac OS?
Digital Camera Updater software has been the way to do it for some time on Windows and Mac. https://www.olympus.co.uk/site/en/c/cameras_support/downloads/firmware_update_instructions/index.html
