    Olympus has a built in camera feature that captures up to super high resolution RAW file of 80MP. I explore the mechanism on how this technique works in the OM-D cameras, the benefits and disadvantages of using the high res shot and also the technical restrictions that come with it. Also, how to activate and use it!

    Tip: you can combine the high-res shot with the 2x digital tele mode! It still produces the 50 and 80mp images, but cropped in 50% and then upscaled. So if you have a 300mm lens (600mm full frame equiv), this gives you 600mm (1200mm full frame equiv)!

    Another great vid Robin, I really feel your efforts (and those of Matti, Rob T, Peter F, Red 35, & the 2 Joe’s) have developed into a great online resource for m43 users. There’s huge value in all of this for the rest of us & obviously anyone thinking of getting into the system. I bought an Oly EM1.2 in Nov and these videos helped guide my decision before hand & are now helping me come to terms with the camera. For the record my cameras prior to this were very simple, 1998 to date, Ricoh GR1, Voigtlander Bessa, Leica M6, M7, Sigma DP2 Merrill, Fuji X100,...the Oly is definitely a bit more involved. It’s amazing ergonomics by the way.

Making these videos help me answer potential future questions, say someone is to ask about where to activate the high res shot, or how does it work, I can show them this video. Saves me time in a long run.

    When I shoot architecture with landscape I shoot my hi res shot and a normal 20 megapixel shot. I layer them in Photoshop after up-res the 20 megapixel image to match the hi res shot. You erase areas which have movement from the hi res shot which shows the lower res shoot without movement. The up res shot is still better than hi res motion. I also pop the number two card from the EM1mkII. It writes to the card slower and slows up the total process time. The number one card will process and write much faster on it's own.

    • @robinwong
      @robinwong  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      When you shoot in high res mode, Olympus gives you a single 20MP RAW file from one of the 8 frames (I assume the first) for this purpose of layering.

    • @robinwong
      @robinwong  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      No problem, just bear in mind that if you do use studio flash, set the delay between each shot to allow for flash recharge time, and also because of that, each shot will take much longer to happen.

    I've been doing a lot of research trying to find the right camera for the kind of work I want to do and it was a toss-up between Sony or the OM-D E-M1 Mark III. The 50-megapixel handheld convinced me to go with the OM-D E-M1 Mark III although there are many other features and advantages to buying into the Olympus brand. I love, loved your video it was so clear and concise and upbeat so thank you very much I have subscribed to your channel and look forward the viewing more videos from you.

    I love high res shot! I mainly use it for long exposure photography, that's where it shines for me. I have made long exposures in the minutes (per individual shot, so times 8 for the total exposure!). The disadvantage of strange movement artefacts is negligible then, since that movement is smoothed out anyway.
    Btw, your examples of that movement between shots are quite nice by itself, like the one with the bird. It kinda turned that disadvantage into a creative tool.
    The E-M1.2 is the first camera in a long time, that I really fell in love with! So much, that I won't see myself upgrading in a while. Maybe when a E-M1.4 comes out, I'll have a look again ;). That said, I'm quite curious what the E-M1.3 will bring! If it's only the few extras of the E--M1X, like LiveND and Handheld HiRes, that would be a shame. Handheld Hires seems awesome, but I don't shoot many short exposures with Hi Res, so I use a tripod anyway. LiveND is a very cool feature, but not enough to upgrade for. Olympus upgrades have been a little underwhelming (even the Em5.3, although of course the AF upgrades are very nice!), so I hope they can surprise us!

    Thanks, another great 4K video! It would be useful to see visual comparisons of the same subject scene between the regular JPG, HiRes JPG, HiRes RAW and EM1X HiRes handheld modes while you are doing the verbal narration. A comparison of the same scene shot in HiRes between the ordinary M.Zuiko 45mm f1.8 and it's PRO counterpart would also be useful to know how much difference that expensive glass makes. Finally, it would be interesting to know when and whether lens diffraction at smaller apertures compromises the final image resolution.

    However I was wondering if the em1 mk1 has the high res option now with an update? I’ve been reading conflicting info. Some articles say yes and some no. Also will high res work at all with non pro lenses so I could at least practice until I can afford a pro lens? I wasn’t sure if you meant it could still work with non pro lens or not.
    Also which of the two would best suit me for shooting mainly wildlife, landscape, macro, a little video of macro wildlife and dabble for fun in Astro/lightning photography but that last one not crucial. Again a great and very informative video. Thanks

    Thank you Robin for pointing out that the resolution is closer to 50 Mpx. Pretty much my experience too. I shoot architecture for a living and I found my Nikon D810’s 36 Mpx providing pretty much the same information (if not even more) than the E-M1’s High Res Mode.
    Don’t get me wrong - I think it’s an awesome feature, especially since it’s processed in-camera (unlike Sony). And I hope that Olympus keep improving it.

    • @robinwong
      @robinwong  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      To fully maximize the benefit of high res shot you do need very sharp lens. Then you can see the full 50MP resoluion. Indeed, the in camera on click implementation is convenient. I think Sony needs a super powerful processor to have this happen with their much larger file sizes.

  • @tizio54
    @tizio54 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I like the high res mode and have gotten some impressive results. However, it doesn't work for moonshots. I've taken shots of the moon with a 300mm F/4 lens, but the moon is moving too quickly across the frame with this level of magnification. A nice upgrade to high res mode would a 'moonshot mode' that compensates for this movement, which is quite linear, steady and predictable (especially with location data, entered manually or via GPS on the E-M1X).

    • @LexTNeville

      Great point. If there were any variation in the speed which the moon moves across our sky, it would likely be accompanied by a pretty major disaster. Sounds achievable. Hi Res Moon Mode enabled!

      Actually, you can use the moons motion to achieve the same effect as moving the sensor. Take a series of images in high speed sequential mode (say 100 images) and use a program called PIPP to center and crop the images on the moon. Then stack these cropped images in Autostakkert using the 3x drizzle mode, then finally sharpen the image (recommend either registax or Astra Image). It takes a bit of learning to get the hang of these programs but the results will be likely be better than anything you could achieve in Hires mode.

    I've recently bought the M5 MkIII and it has this function too. But you cannot open the resulting RAW file in Lightroom or Photoshop. Do you have to download and use the Olympus Workspace program to see and use the High Res file? How are you supposed to do post-processing on it and print it?

    Robin, can this mode be used even with adapted lenses? Lets say If I attach Sig35/1.4 Art which has plenty of fine optical resolution around F4-F8.
    And have you tried to combine several resulting RAW files later in PP to get even more detail and remove all noise?

    Good overview, Robin! I'm still experimenting with HR mode myself.
    Those whiffed Hi Res shots are actually kinda cool. However, I'm sad that it doesn't work on the moon, which seems to move too fast for a clean HRS but not fast enough to make some sort of cool effect.

    • @robinwong
      @robinwong  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The Earth is constantly moving, and the Moon too, hence both subjects are not perfectly still. Bear in mind, even just a half pixel distance mismatch, the images cannot be composited properly into one.

    • @JeffreyMcPheeters
      @JeffreyMcPheeters 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, it takes at least 1/100 shutter speed to get the moon and since the E-M1.2 takes 1 second and the E-M1X takes 1/60 second at their fastest to do the seqence of shots, it’s not possible unless mounted on a tracking mount. I can do this on tracking mounts. Also, interestingly, the hand held variety of the E-M1X works fine with the moon IF you have enough telephoto or enough other contrasting details in the frame for the calculations to work. For example, hand held high res of the moon, if it’s in a dark sky, and if the moon is not sufficiently large enough within the frame, won’t likely work. Still, as Robin noted, the hand held high res is not the same overall quality as the tripod version, and in my experience, I’d rather use a standard image of the moon or even the jpeg 2x maginified view, will often be better than the hand held high res version when looked at closely. But it’s all getting better all the time and in the future, we’ll see even more robust kinds of calculated images I expect.

    Hi Robin, I am thinking to do some artworks reproduction work in high res mode. I use to stitch those images to get even more overall resolution, a kind of plane panorama. My question is: If I capture 2 images in 80mp high res from a tripod, with some overlapping, do you think that the stitching will be possible? My worry is the Olympus calculation in the camera to get a 80MP image. Is this laws the same formula? For example, I photograph a painting. I capture an 80 MP picture of the corner of painting first, then I move on an electronically controlled and highly precise tripod to capture the next area, with overlap. The parallelism, illumination, etc., remain perfect and the same. Do you think that the 2 images will look same or is there a danger that the camera recomposes the second high res image a little differently, which makes the stitching impossible? Any idea would be of great help. All the best, your videos are amazing. You are a very positive person and it is a pleasure to watch you speaking.

  • @jamesalamb
    @jamesalamb 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    One more technical limitation, I think, is that you can’t use Interval Timer. It doesn’t say it in the manual but Interval Timer only allows Single/Anti-shock/Silent, and setting High Res turns Interval Timer off. I can’t see that it mentions it in the manual, and I don’t really understand why it should be the case. I expect if I buy a cable-release with an intervalometer built-in, then it should work, but that seems a bit strange. I am trying this on an EM1 mk3 with a 12-40 Pro (and just starting to dabble in astrophotography). Should it work (and I just have some conflicting setting perhaps) ?

  • @pwx8460
    @pwx8460 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks Robin! Been waiting for this video, and you provided great info. I did not know the hand held version in the em1x used 16 randomized images to create the one high res. That's interesting and seems almost counter intuitive since the sequence would take even longer to capture.
    I smiled seeing you do your sample image. You know what's even more stable than a tripod....a stone wall!! Thanks again for the great info.

    Robin, I am having one major problem. I just got an OMD E-M1 III and when I do a 80mp Hi Res "Raw" on my tripod with a 4 sec delay before the shot starts, the image comes out blurred. But If I shoot 80mp jpeg it is perfectly sharp. Why is the raw blurry but a jpeg sharp? I have tried delays from 2 sec all the way up to 8 secs and still the raw is blurred but the jpegs clear.

    • @robinwong

      Are you talking about panorama stitching? The High Res Shot is not panorama stitching, and it gives true increase of resolution from a single image. You can then use each of the hgh res shot and shoot them in panorama. Now, think of the possibilities. 80MP with your usual 4, 6 up to 16 shots. You can easily reach 1000MP.

    about 600th of a second, I can get sharp moon at normal resolution. So Robin's advice seems to work if the moon and clouds are relatively still. Anyone have same experience or is it just me goofing !

    Since you can't have any movement, do you think Olympus is going to make a firmware update that provides a 2 sec delay on pressing the shutter? Even on a tripod, just releasing the shutter button moves the camera enough to ruin my images. I was surprised to see that the O.I. Share app doesn't include this as a shutter option, because using the app as a remote would be a huge help. (I have the 5mii, maybe this is included on the 5miii or MK1)
