20mm was too short for me so decided to sell it.

before i was using 45mm F1.8 and the original macro converter, but no anti shake difficult to use,
also the infinity not enough for capture insect， so sell it and bought 45mm F2.8 macro.

45mm F2.8 really sharp， this one is 100% crop

my english not good, try to explain~
compare with jpeg, raw file more details,and it dun have any lossless when u modify/adjust the ev,white balance and color.

if using olympus , their jpeg color is good, but panasonic jpeg's color was a weakness.
people say panasonic will have better color when using raw.

what are they doing?

actually i want to capture the pen, do u belive me?

P1010891 by tcm7782, on Flickr

i use lightroom.
First, use the spot remove tool（cannot capture mouse cursor）to remove acne or blemishes。


Then use adjustment brush,
effect: soften skin
u can add 0.3 ev for more whitening skin,
and clarity i will put 30% to 60%, higher clarity skin will smoother.


then just brush the whole faceafter finish click done button.

yes, clarity should be minus.
for the race queen, it was outdoor so didn't use flash.

for the local gt show girl, it was a half indoor, i use nissin di466(ttl), can get sharp image.
my experience before, 45mm F2.8 without flash when indoor shoting, the image very blur like dc

this one my external flash out of battery, so use higher iso,
the image not sharp as using flash, and the white balance also crazy liao.

P1040180 by tcm7782, on Flickr

HI~ i use Nissin Di466 (M4/3 version) for my GX-1.
small size ,cheap~ RM 3xx, have ttl, but cannot swivels head and no FP.
no FP mean when in A mode, the shutter speed will lock at 1/60.

my works with this flash, can use very small aperture with low iso:

F16 iso 160

P1010327 by tcm7782, on Flickr

F10 iso 160

P1000709 by tcm7782, on Flickr

F14 iso 160

P1000727 by tcm7782, on Flickr

F16 iso 160 (to small aperture i use, no bokeh liao)

P1040605 by tcm7782, on Flickr

F18 iso 160 (F 22 also no problem)

maybe the angle problem the flash looks big size.
this is was very small compare with other~

i use bounce flash , macro shot too close cannot direct flash.

1, 2 , 3 with flash

Ant move fast, hard to focus

wah, pls dun call me sifu ler~
i still new la, i start taking Photograph less than one year...

less start our first lesson~

when in macro mode, the iimage stabilizer/anti hand shake will lose efficacy(because the object too small and the range too close).
so u need to always maintain the Safety shutter speed.
for 12-50mm, the focal will lock at 43mm in macro mode ,right?
that's mean ur minimum shutter speed shoul be 1/100.
if u got flash then can ignore this.

second, remember always focus on the eyes.
this one i fail to focus her eyes because its too small ar~~~~
