Re: How much camera is too much?
Right, that's what I was trying to say. The Oly 75-300 is micro four thirds and slower, the 75-300 is four thirds and the same aperture as the Pany 100-300. I'm a sucker for aperture. The 75-300 would put you at ISO 2400 (or 2500) when you could be at 1600. No hood supplied with the Oly... cheesy... But, it could all come… -
Re: How much camera is too much?
Oh, no major reason, just that the Pany 100-300 is a bit faster than the Oly 75-300, and is stabilized. Oly makes a 70-300 that is as fast as the Pany, but it is four thirds, not micro four thirds. So I think that means it is bigger and needs an adapter? Anyway, both are worth considering. I would hold and operate both the… -

Re: How much camera is too much?
pathfinder, thanks for reading my question and replying. The E-M1 is the camera I am most enthused about, but I have not actually had one in my hands. Almost everyone I have talked to, or read about, that has played with it, says it is a jewel. It may be irrational, but that is worth something to me. My little FZ200 is a… -
Re: How much camera is too much?
I have not used the EM-1 either, since I already have a GH-3, and my wife has an OM-D EM-5, but otherwise I would give it a whirl also. Marc Muench speaks highly of his, and he has a GH-3 to compare it with. I bought the Lumix 100-300 for its reach, size, weight, and the fact that it is a stabilized lens. The extra 1/2… -
Re: How much camera is too much?
Photographing birds in flight dictate requirements that most camera bodies ( other than good DSLRs ) cannot meet. I have a GH3, and I have used it extensively in Africa, Florida, western US, and Equador for wildlife shooting, and I like it a great deal, but it is not - in my opinion - a good camera for birds, because birds… -
Re: How much camera is too much?
You know, I have a Nikon 1v1. And quite frankly it ticks a LOT of the boxes here. Put the FT1 adapter on it (which I also have) and it can take any Nikon lens and autofocus any Nikon AF-S lens. The big advantage to this is that the 70-200/2.8 on this camera becomes a 210-540/F2.8 equivalent field of view and shoots at…
