- I went for a photo walk along a small beck on the North Yorkshire moors with my Olympus EM-1 Mark ii micro four thirds camera and discovered one or two cool things completely by accident...

Another great video. We seem so similar ... forgetting the correct filter connections ... discovering new features by accident!
I'm 70 now and always take a trekking pole (walking stick) on paths that are steep and slippy and it's saved me and my gear on numerous times. Some great shots here
Great video Chris, It's quite a long learning curve with all that the EM1-MK2 and most other Olympus cameras will do, there is a humongous amount of control available; I've been using the EM1-MK2 for a couple of years and I'm still finding new ways to utilise some of it's outstanding features - a truly superb camera.
I kind of just set it up how I’m used to using a camera and never really explored any of the features. I should sit down and have a proper look though it all one night.
Great video -as always I enjoyed very much. Photos were beautiful!!
Excellent photographs. I missed that too. Thank you very much.
Hi Chris, quite some recognition for me in this video! I had my E-M10 MKII already for three years when I found a feauture I never thought it had. Also, having high expectations of a shoot and coming back a bit disappointed. I have learned that when you see those photos in quite a while again you may like them much more. To me the photo with the birch lying in the foreground was very appealing (the hanging about photo).
Love your work
Thanks Paul.
Excellent photos Chris, glad you are discovering new features, capable little beast the E-M1 II.
I need to experiment more with the camera to be fair. I know I need to upgrade the EM5 Mark ii as the AF is a little hit and miss for video.
Another great video Chris. New subscriber :)
Great images Chris and yes many people are surprised what the Olympus cameras can do , I quite often forget about the HDR feature also focus stacking, been doing a bit with the high res in forests but you cant have any wind/movement. I do find both of my Olympus cameras are a pleasure and are fun to use. The Emi Mk iii and the OM-1 have built in ND filters that are very handy. Cheers mate
The EM1 Mark iii was my original plan as it happens. Then I looked at the firmware updates for the Mark ii and realised it was 90% of the Mark iii for about £300 less 😆
Good stuff Chris, wish we had waterfalls like this in Kent, the ones down here are like something you get with your average garden water feature.
Big Thumbs up, as always ❤
I too discovered HDR on a Vienna family trip last summer.
What I learned is that I can have much more control using the RAWs merging them in my favorite tool, ON1 Photo RAW.
Currently, I am dabbling in off-camera multi-flash flower shooting. All superbly controlled by the EM5II RC flash control panel. You should have a look at it. Cheers.
Another Oly/ON1 proponent - these are my dream team too!
great vid Chris -what kind of tripod is that?
Hi Chris: Thanks for creating and sharing this video. I used to shot with this exact camera. It brought me back to great memories. I have subscribed to your channel, so I am looking forward to viewing more of your content. Cheers, Keith (Canada)
I only discovered yesterday that the HDR bracketing button is so much easier to get to than diving into the menu for bracketing! Then up pops your video this morning! 👌
I could have sworn I’d set that up as something else when I got the camera, you’re right, a press of a button is a lot easier to do than dive into the super intuitive Olympus menu system….
@@ChrisBaitson the way things are separated into seemingly unrelated parts of submenus is an interesting experience indeed! 🤣
I so need this on my Z8
Great video Chris. Just converted to an em5 mk III from Nikon dslr. Loving it and the feature set is astounding. Will have a look for the HDR. Look forward to the next video. 👍
Thanks for watching! I still think I could do with upgrading the video camera which is the EM5 Mark ii for a Mark iii for the better auto focus.
RTFM. Read the effing manual. You might consider downloading the PDF Manual to your phone. That way when you’re stuck waiting for your woman to finish with her makeup or sitting by yourself in the bathroom you can pull out your phone and read a few pages and find something new.
But where’s the fun in that 😂
Thanks for the video, I love my OM1 and all the computational features.
Just interested in the Ulanzi & Coman tripod and head, can you advise which model you use please, thanks alot.
Interesting video from another M43 user. I love the format especially for its portability (waterfalls are one of my favourite landscapes and often need a strenuous hike to access them.) Speaking of which, I carry a set of mini crampons that are a great help in negotiating steep gulleys and crossing slippery stream beds. Regarding auto bracketing (the Panasonic equivalent of your 'HDR button',) I used to use that fairly often in harsh, contrasty scenes. After adopting darktable raw file editor (free and LR compatible) I find that I can manage some very contrasty lighting in post. It has a very good module called tone equaliser for this. Regarding the choice of ND filters, I carry a set of internal filters. These eliminate the problems of flare on the front of an external filter. I'm of rather a long vintage so lightweight is important and I recently bought the new and very innovative Heipi carbon fibre travel tripod which I use with a levelling base to shoot panoramic waterfall scenes. Very light and very versatile. Check it out.
I enjoyed the video. Well made and not too wordy. Thanks. Subscribed.
"After adopting darktable raw file editor (free and LR compatible) I find that I can manage some very contrasty lighting in post. It has a very good module called tone equaliser for this."
Thanks for the tip of the module.
I have lately started to adapt the darktable to my workflow as it has improved lot from early days, and find it so much nicer than Lightroom. Like the darktable selection and layer tools are far better than what Lightroom offered (and it didn't for long time).
I still do my primary work with the Affinity Photo, but it is not available for Linux. The Affinity Photo has best selection and inpainting tools, better than Adobe AI featured ones. It is magical how much easier and better you get with just little effort to think how to use tools.
I need to go tomorrow testing that Tone Equalizer module...
Yeah, my GH4 has a dedicated dial position for exposure bracketing... up to 7 shots. Much more useful than trying to set it up manually!
That's a really cool feature! I don't know why Sony still limits the timer to 30 seconds before going to bulb mode.
i haver just got an em10 mk 2 , after seeing your videos i dont know if i can do the waterfall thing like you did on mine
What are you struggling with?
Not sure why bracketing should be a mystery to anyone. As for in-camera HDR, not all camera systems provide the original RAW files and that can be a downside among other issues. Read the manual.
It's amazing what one can discover playing around with buttons on the camera. Another way is to read the manual.
You should replace that EM5.2 with EM5.3 purely since the AF is far superior in video
This I agree with Eric. It’s starting to get a little irritating is the focus wandering about now.
Afternoon 😉
Evening
Does that camera have live ND mode also? That could be fun too.
No this one’s doesn’t have it unfortunately as I’d love to have a go. The Mark iii has it.
Have you given high resolution mode a blast yet
I’ve dabbled but not gone full into it yet.
I'm not sure if I can watch the photo develop like you can ?, yours is a better model than mine
Scroll your shutter speed as slow as it goes and keep going in M mode. You’ll then see live time etc
Thanks mate I will do that
could I ask where the first waterfall is
It’s just outside of Goathland
If you like complications and extra features, wait until you get an OM-1! One good thing is that I find it more intuitive and easier to use than my EM-5.
The OM1 is on my radar but the price is a little off my radar 😂 I might save up for a few months and grab one later in the year though.
@@ChrisBaitson I got mine at a decent discount from my regular retailer compared to the OMD site price. Compared with some other new cameras on the market I reckon it was good value.
@@ChrisBaitson Good video BTW, I found it informative, as I'm sure many others will
Thank you ☺️
If and when I ever use the HDR mode on my EM1 MKII, I just use the HDR1 mode. It really gives great natural results.
Is that the mode that outputs the JPEG files? I seem to recall one mode being JPEG only and one giving the RAW files too?
@@ChrisBaitson No, my camera imports the end result as ORF ( it is set to RAW+SF). camera itself combines the exposures. It is the same with my EM5 MKII.
@@ChrisBaitson No, you will get both JPEG and RAW from both HDR1 + HDR2. You can also confirm this from the super control panel (SCP). The modes are pretty much similar, but one is for high-contrast scenes and the other for super-high-contrast scenes; basically, different amount of stops between the individual exposures. You can get some more information on this also in the menu, I think it's the camera 1 menu.
Did you say which lens you're using?
It’s the Olympus 12-40MM 2.8 Pro
@@ChrisBaitson cool. Was wondering if it wasn't the 4/8-25
I’m an amateur who likes more creative photography or stuff that pleases my eye.
I REALLY want to use my filters more because I’ve thought of using an ND with LiveBulb before, but changing filter sizes are such a pain across different lens sizes!! Let alone the fact my silly arse has both Olympus AND Nikon gear
I thought the photo at 9:28 was particularly good.
Thank you Jon!
I’m rejoining Olympus. Buckle up
Welcome back Eric 😎
Oh come on
@@KyleGustafson1986 thought you were selling me your 12-40?
Once you see one UK landscape photographer you saw them all. as if they copy paste these. thank you (joke of course)
Mate, come on. I haven’t bought a van yet…
@@ChrisBaitson hahahaha that’s very true. Great point 😂
Get yourself a G9 Chris. Exposure/focus/f-stop bracketing. Twin card slots to stress you less 😂
All features the E-M1 mkII has too, and the Oly has the added bonus of the Live feature set! If only the Oly had the APSC sensor size too.
I need to look at upgrading the video camera, maybe a second EM1 Mark ii is an option?
Personally I went for G9 as I much prefer panny's user interface and feel in hand. Also olly pro lenses are awesome, but I felt that panny had a better selection of native affordable lenses . But it's splitting hairs really. For pure photo maybe the em..for hybrid the g9 imo if you can work with CDAF. All subjective opinion though..
@@bingbong4848 have to agree with the LUMIX menus being so much more user friendly to delve into. I’ve had the S5, GH5 & G85 and they were all a joy to use, with none of them needing a gimbal for handheld video work. Now have the Oly E-M1 mkII for light painting and macro, and my Sony a7r mkI for where I might need more resolution to print very large. I’ll never be a fanboi of any one brand, it’s whatever works well for your use and comfort that I advocate for, just like you, Bing Bong.
