Mike, you are so generous to share this great wealth of information about how you do your photographic files as well as how you do your photography. Having developed my own systems over the years I can appreciate the amount of work you put into this. I, too, preferred to review, sort, and backup my files the same day that I shot them. Several times I realized that I needed to try to do a bird over in order to get it a little better. It beats getting home and wishing you had done it over. Thanks again for your generosity, Mike, and for sharing your expertise as well as your wonderful pictures.
@9:18. I used it to. However with more than two devices plugged, the amperage on each channel drops dramatically and charging time goes through the roof. I find it most efficient when one device (more power-hungry) is blugged to orange channel and one to the green channel. But maybe that depends on the charger internal design.
Another cracking video Mike , nice to see how you save your photo’s to your laptop while on tour, perhaps you could do a video on culling , and what method you save and catalog your shots, I seem to get into such a mess with mine
Culling software at th-cam.com/video/RwM5xXTVSoE/w-d-xo.html Cataloging at th-cam.com/video/JaeOj_KKhTI/w-d-xo.html What I like about both of them is they are intuative and easy to learn.
Hi Mike, Your videos and commentary are always interesting to watch and listen to. The results you're getting with the OM-1 body and lenses are very impressive. Thanks for posting.
Another vote for Breezebrowser. I've yet to find anything that works as well when viewing and culling images. It does slow right down loading thumbnails from large cards (128Gb and over) but once loaded it is super fast. Amazing footage of the goshawks with the wasps !
Enjoyed your comment about shooting at ISO 12,800 on 4/3 camera systems. Funny how all the pundits who have never picked up a 4/3 camera have all those opinions. ISO is a complete non-issue with todays cameras and post processing software, no matter the format you choose to shoot with.
The Goshawks look like apex predators. Very convincing sharp 1/800th shots. Enjoyed your workflowvas well. Happy, the 100-400mm is getting praised. One of your earlier comparison videos helped my choice. Got a used one. Certainly cannot afford the 150-400mm Pro. Even used!!
Another great video Mike: When I owned a Sony A9, A7R4 and A7III, I had the same problem with specs of dust, and had to regularly clean mine. As I nearly always carry two cameras, it wasn't through changing lenses in the field. I have never had a dust problem with any of my EM series cameras or either of my OM1's.
Hi Mike I have been thinking of going down to Spain and the hides de Calera was on the potential list, after watching it now goes close to the top. I use much the same system as you, OM-1 plus Panasonic 100-400. Like you I am amazed at what this setup can do and with modern noise reduction high ISO is not a problem. Never tried video but seeing what you were able to achieve will give it a go. Thanks for another great video.
Thank you for all the knowledge you share and the wonderful bird photographs and video. I would love to hear about your strategy for obtaining such good exposure values.
Excellent video Mike! I have the om100-400 on my om1 and I’ve been impressed with it for such a reasonably priced lens. I’ve been looking at the 150-400 but at nearly £6000 more, I’m not sure it’s 5 or 6 times better, for me anyway, but it’s looks tempting!
Thank you for showing us your set up Mike. This is something I’m still working on. Do you really need three back ups? Have you had some fail? What do you use for editing back home?
Interesting comments Mike re the OM1 and GH6. I use the lever on the OM1 to switch between stills and video. I think the next upgrades for the OM1 will be 200 frames + at 4k and the same for the GH6 but with phase detect focus as on the G9 mark 2. Then life will become complicated in terms of choice of system. Low noise at high ISO will just continue to improve. What were your thought on the 100-400 lens the images looked good.
There is little difference between the two lens ( I have a YT film on it somewhere). I was not concerned to use it for a day as I knew I would not be able to tell from looking at the pictures.
Do you manually focus in 240p? Is so, than you could use 300p in Lumix. It is the same quality but you cannot use back-button to refocus. What do you think about Olympus 100-400mm? These goose-hawks take-off shots looked very sharp in their plane of focus. I can't afford to buy 150-400mm but I am planning to keep the 100-400mm regardless of whether I switch to Panasonic G9II or stay with OM-1.
hi mike thanks again for sharing your spain birding trip. your photos with the OM-1 are great. I don't see that very often. I wonder if the camera itself learns, is that true? anyway your photos are really great.❤
I’m a little bit frustrated with OM-1 caf in video mode, it hunts sometimes and not the af seems not very sticky. 240 fps basically is manual focusing ?
@@MikeLaneFRPSI happen to own the Nikon Z9 also and the video mode caf is so much better than OM-1. It is full frame unfortunately and I don’t plan on using it as a systems. Lenses tend to be expensive and heavy.
I'm quite like my newly bought OM-1 + M.Zuiko 100-400mm F5-6.3, but since mine is not the pro lens, which I cannot afford! And the flicker is killing my eyes! Is that a pure technical thing or it's something OM system simply put there for your annoyance so to sell their pro lens? Nice video Mike , always.
Using SH1 there is no flicker. It is constant viewing. Using SH2 the flicker is so slight as to be unnoticeable. Compared with a DSLR camera flicker is a thing of the past. Hard to imagine you find it hard on the eyes.
@@MikeLaneFRPS Thanks Mike, I wear glasses 🕶️ maybe that hurts me more. I now updated my C1/C2 custom settings with Drive SH2, there's no more flicker, let me try it works or not.
@@MikeLaneFRPS I tried it with SH2 25, yes, I heard from another photographer he says SH2 25fps is the minimum without flickers. I tried seems working fine, I heard my lens is not supported, but seems it's not the case. During shooting I see a flashing 'F' in orange and by far I don't know what it means, I need to check the manual.

Thank you. Started to do the TH-cam videos during the Covid lockdown for something to do and seem to have carried on.

I find it most efficient when one device (more power-hungry) is blugged to orange channel and one to the green channel. But maybe that depends on the charger internal design.
I shall have to monitor it.
Superbe
Thanks.
Fantastic images Mike! great video!
Many thanks!
Nice film with some useful tips.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi mike, yepp, I have the same process of storing my pics while I am in vacations. after each lunch and dinner my routine starts. 😊
Sometimes in Spain with the late finishes and early starts it does not leave much time for sleep.
Another cracking video Mike , nice to see how you save your photo’s to your laptop while on tour, perhaps you could do a video on culling , and what method you save and catalog your shots, I seem to get into such a mess with mine
If I am remembering correctly, he has a video on how he manages his photos.

Hi Mike, thanks for sharing that lovely video. Great slow-mo and yes I do the same as you transfer from the camera to an SSD drive.👍
It always surprises me how many people don't.
Hi Mike, Your videos and commentary are always interesting to watch and listen to. The results you're getting with the OM-1 body and lenses are very impressive. Thanks for posting.
Thanks, will do!
Your videos are incredible Mike, I love this.
Glad you like them!

I have used it from when I first swopped to digital.
Your work with micro 4/3s has inspired me to give it a try. The new G9-2 had captured my attention.
I wonder what the next OM camera will give us. Very inventive company.
Great video as usual. Disappointed not to hear "Thanks for watching " at the end. Tut tut. Lol
Yes don't know what happened there.

Mostly people just repeat what they have heard until it becomes a fact. We are probably all guilty of it at somepoint.
Wow great video. I have only got distant shots here in the UK . Amazing to get so close what a hide 👍
Spain is full of these hides.
The Goshawks look like apex predators. Very convincing sharp 1/800th shots.
Enjoyed your workflowvas well. Happy, the 100-400mm is getting praised. One of your earlier comparison videos helped my choice. Got a used one.
Certainly cannot afford the 150-400mm Pro. Even used!!

Great video Mike as always. Never seen a Goshawk before, would love to photograph one sometime. Have a great weekend👍😀
Hard to do by yourself, but there are many commercial hides for Goshawk.
Another great video Mike: When I owned a Sony A9, A7R4 and A7III, I had the same problem with specs of dust, and had to regularly clean mine. As I nearly always carry two cameras, it wasn't through changing lenses in the field. I have never had a dust problem with any of my EM series cameras or either of my OM1's.
Olympus/OM cameras seem to have solved the sensor dust problem.

Thnaks you. Video has a learning curve to it and I am still a novice.
Thank you for all the knowledge you share and the wonderful bird photographs and video. I would love to hear about your strategy for obtaining such good exposure values.
I do talk about it frequently, but with over 200 10 minute YT films done now it is hard to find.
Mike, At the airport do the hard drives go threw the scanners.
Thanks, Mike B
Yes. Its not an issue as it wa sin the film days.
I hope it is released before I meke the switch 👍
Excellent video Mike!

I’ve been looking at the 150-400 but at nearly £6000 more, I’m not sure it’s 5 or 6 times better, for me anyway, but it’s looks tempting!
Optically little difference, but the built in 1.25x is wonderful, plus the extra wide aperture.
Hi Mike. Was interested in the software you use. Not heard of it. Any chance u can do a vid to show it off with a simple example?
If it is Breezebrowser I mentioned then th-cam.com/video/RwM5xXTVSoE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for showing us your set up Mike. This is something I’m still working on. Do you really need three back ups? Have you had some fail?
What do you use for editing back home?
Yes I have had disk failures and know others who have lost every picture from a trip. Breezrbrowser for editing and an old version of Photoshop
Great content as always Mike hope you get a g9 ii would love to hear you comparison of the two cameras📷👍
Might be a while as the taxman seems to think I should pay off the Nations debt all by myself!
Nice to know that I won't need adapters if I ever go to Spain. But should I ever go to Britain, it's a different story.
Thanks Mike. You convince me to go for higher ISO. I was scared go above 8k😂
Cheers for another great video 👍
Glad it was helpful.

Great shots and footage Mike. When is Frederic going to `see the light`, and treat himself to an OM1 ? 😂
He is too good at what he does already!
@@MikeLaneFRPS Very true.

Yes I manually focus. I no longer own a Lumix as it was not getting used. Not much difference between thetwo lenses.
@@MikeLaneFRPS You lucky! Did you loose a lot on the selling GH6?
hi mike
thanks again for sharing your spain birding trip. your photos with the OM-1 are great. I don't see that very often. I wonder if the camera itself learns, is that true? anyway your photos are really great.❤
No not true. Light is the most important factor in photography. The camera you use does not matter for quality.
@@MikeLaneFRPS I personally think that the censor and lenses is not exactly unimportant, just like the person behind the camera
Have you ever been to Lofoten?
No not been.
@@MikeLaneFRPS lots of eagles in Lofoten
I’m a little bit frustrated with OM-1 caf in video mode, it hunts sometimes and not the af seems not very sticky. 240 fps basically is manual focusing ?
I have not used a camera that has good AF in video mode yet. Yes 240 fps is manual focus only.

Second time you are filming a Belgian very rare species. Is he not too noisy 😂😅 ?
Om cameras offer many settings other cameras do not including a Belgium noise filter for the mic. I have to put it at full strength!
Never ever I have seen wasps feeding on carrion.
I believe they feed it to their larvae.
@@MikeLaneFRPS Yes, they need proteins for their offspring, but usually hunt for invertebrates. Never seen this before!
SO IN PART GEAR DOES MATTER !!!!
I had the hunters as well at the time ... even direct in Front of the hide. Ruined the day.
Very common in Spain.
