When we do auto or manual focus, it be a green box appear, but the box is small, it cause the focus area small.even I press the button to make the green box into full screen rather than just one spot, when I half rests the button it goes to one small box...how should I set so can focus on bigger area?
*
Simple. Just press either side of the arrow button to the max till you get the full focus grid highlighted in green.

Me too, I got cuts by my original Olympus strap and got myself the Kata Strap. Really nice too. It's a soft fabric type with ventilated cushion for the neck. But, I couldn't control myself when I laid my eyes on that leather strap and became a happy victim.

Please share... Thanks

I'm also in the midst of hunting for a flash.
It's either the Metz Mecablitz 58 AF-2 or the Olympus FL600R.
Looking forward to hear from the users whom have already owned and tested the flashes... Cheers!

I'm still deciding which to go for. The Metz cost higher than the Oly. But I can't find any good reviews on the Oly but the Metz seems solid and dummy proof for us newbies. Confused...?!

Quite tempted to get this FL600R. It's weather proof built and light weight.

Yes, I've got that ultral wide eye-popping lens. Have yet to fully tested it. Should get it if you take lots of landscape or architecture shots.

Here's a quick test the same day I've got the lens:

These ultra wide angle lens have got one big issue; You can't protect the protruded lens with lens filter (unless you willing to DIY it).

Or you can opt for the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 9-18mm f/4.0-5.6 Lens. It's half the price and can have lens filter to protect the lens.

Here's the comparison charts for "Sharpness & Chromatic Aberration" to help you decide:

Trust me, you won't be happy with 9-18. You'll for sure aim to upgrade it to 7-14 later drool.gif

Anyway, here's what every (90%) OM-D owners faced when we first purchased the camera; We asked for screen protector and "none" are available in the market (malaysia) specially designed/ready-cut for our precious. I was one of them... I got the smaller cheap (free) screen protector applied when I got my baby OM-D from the shop I bought. The (free) screen protector I've got from the shop is small and it did not cover fully on the LCD screen. It makes the screen ugly when viewing the shots.

Then I ordered the "Lexerd Screen Protector" from eBay. The screen protector is ultra thin and ready-cut for OM-D. icon_idea.gif

The package includes:
1 x Screen Protector
1 x Squeezie Card
2 x Fingers Latex Gloves

But the edges looked damn ugly, it did not laminates properly no matter how I tried it. This is how it looked like...:

I then thought that it'll slowly settle in... But after more than 5 days, it's still looked the same and was very disappointed with the money spent for this item. cry.gif
Continue my search and found out that even the 3M screen protector acting the same and it was full of craps in eBay for our OM-D. shakehead.gif

Then I managed to get myself this:

I am now more than happy. The film quality is superb and is very easy to apply, no bubbles, no un-sticky edges (like the Lexerd), Crystal Clear (anti-glare also available), will not affect the sensitivity of the touch-screen and perfectly cut. drool.gif

PM me if any of you are interested (promise... It's very affordable) icon_rolleyes.gif

I think u got it all wrong bro, the Lexerd Screen Protector is useless. That's why I posted to warn you guys not to buy any of the screen protectors in eBay. You'll get unsticky edges all around like the 2nd and 3rd pictures. They sell it so damn cheap. B'cos it's CHEAP & crappy product. What I'm selling is a new product. Material is 100% made and produced in Japan. They don't sell it out of the country and they don't speak english... but I managed to get quite a bit of their products back and am helping them sell to it here in Malaysia (as a sole distributor).

count me too. but is this sticky task easy ar? seems to have bubble after that.

It's super easy to apply. As long as there is no dust trapped under the screen protector. I can help you apply if required.

This should be the popular question everyone have been asking in the photography...
Let discus this on the m43 perspective...

It is raw vs jpeg...

Which format do u shoot with?... And, why...

So far for me, i shoot everything in jpeg, bcoz i like the Olympus jpeg colour and i m a lazy bump...
I shoot only RAW for all my shots. Don't really like the flatness in JPEG. I prefer to choose the perfect shot and tweak it from there.
Reason behind all this is, I can rescue over/under-exposed photos if required and no lost of details. I can then convert it to JPEG if needed.
Go get yourself a high capacity with super fast performance SD Card(s) you can afford. Don't limit yourself with cheap, slow and in-reliable card(s).
I've got myself the SanDisk Extreme Pro 64GB SDXC UHS-I Memory Card (95MB/s). It's costly and it really hurts at first when I bought it. But after first use, I'm very please with it's speed delivered and the huge space I've now got, I no longer need to worry about the amount of shots I'm going to shoot. (DON'T BUY THE 16GB or 32GB SDHC 95MB/s, they are very slow. I'd recommend to get a few of the 8GB SDHC with 95MB/s instead)... Sorry... Can't stop myself from racunning... Geez~ blush.gif
