    super appreciated sir! This was the only thing for a beginner like me that wasn't a tremendously long video and so step by step with your explanations. GREAT JOB

    Thank you, Rob, for not having any background music! It is so much easier to concentrate without disturbing music.

    • @RobTrek
      @RobTrek  5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Thanks. I don't know too many teachers that teach with background music on, so I tried to replicate that.

    Thanks so much for making this series. I just got this camera and it was pretty intimidating to even begin to understand how it works. I have no experience with photography and was totally clueless about photography beyond my phone. Your guide has been such a big help, you're a great teacher and you have got me started on the journey to understanding this camera.

    • @christineheiser117
      @christineheiser117 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’ve had my camera for more than a year now, but after watching your explanations of the various settings, it has helped me understand now I can’t wait to see what a difference it will make to my photography. I will definitely be following your other videos. Thanks so much.

    I've had the camera for a while but did not have time to come to grips with it. This is a great introduction, particularly how to set the single auto focus point. I am looking forward to viewing more of your down-to-earth videos. Many thanks!

    This is an amazing video. Super clear and easy to understand. I just opened the box and before shooting a single shot I changed all the settings. I want to watch every one of Rob’s videos. What a way to learn a new camera! Thanks so much, Rob.

    Thanks for this very helpful video Rob!! It's in my opinion the best video for beginners with this camera on youtube. Everything is very clear and I like that you focus on the important points (and not all the settings which are a little confusing for starters!) It really helped a lot, thanks again for your time!!

    Thank you Rob for helping me begin to understand my camera. I have been struggling and I still have a long way to go, but your way of explaining the basics has started me feeling much better about my camera. I will now start using the camera with more confidence and look forward to watching the other episodes you have created. Thank you

    Thank you Rob for putting out these super practical and beginner friendly videos especially about setting up a new Olympus camera. I just bought a new EM10 Mark ii and like you said I didn't know how to start. I knew that it is a very powerful camera (that's why I chose it) and I also knew that Olympus is famous for their complex menu settings. I am so grateful that your video was the first one I watched right after I opened my camera box. Your instructions are clear and all the explanations make sense even for a absolute beginner like me. I like how you show your camera screen from the background and that's really helpful. I also like that you pointed out everything you did with every little settings and the reasons behind it. It is really easy for someone like me to follow and learn from it. Your video gives me the confidence that I can use this camera with its full potential instead of never knowing some of the hidden but useful features. THANK YOU!

      I watched some of Rob's video BEFORE I purchased a used EM10 mark ii. I would never have bought it without knowing that Rob would be there with a video to explain how to use it. What you said about Rob's video instruction is exactly what I was going to say. I am a retired high school teacher and I agree that Rob is an excellent teacher!

    My wife recently retired from 30 years of teaching and is now having the opportunity to take her passions (photography and digital scrapbooking) to a higher level. A few weeks ago she ran across one of your videos and immediately fell in love with your teaching style. She very much appreciates your easy-going manner and the comfortable pace you take, combined with your ability to clearly explain things in an unassuming way. She suggested I have a look myself and after watching a few of your videos, I understand why she is so happy to have discovered your channel.
    We have a couple of E-M10s, so we are very thankful to have found your tutorials for the menu system and features on this camera. Thanks for filling this much needed but neglected niche.

    • @RobTrek
      @RobTrek  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for taking the time to write. I really appreciate the kind feedback. I will continue this series, just been so busy lately. I envy your wife's retirement.

    Rob,
    Thank you so much for your informative videos for the OMD EM10 MkII. I'm finally getting my head around the settings on mine. You have a way of getting such information across without making it complicated.

    After years since you first posted the advice, it is still so helpful for someone like me who did not have the time until now to learn about how to use the camera well. Thanks Rob! Your guidance has been like gold.

  • @ansomeBob
    @ansomeBob 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another superb tutorial Rob
    I have recently added a PEN8 to my E-M1 mk1 & 2 but I still find your tutorials on other Olympus cameras useful and above all, I always learn something new, even after 3 years with the OMDs.
    Today I learned that after using the touch screen to move the focus point, you can hit the "off" and go back to my home setting - I hadn't even noticed the "OFF" option pop up!
    So, many thanks and please keep going, your style and pace are perfect for users at all levels.
    Regards from Wales.

    • @RobTrek
      @RobTrek  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks, Bob! I'm always learning something new. The touch screen off thing is new for me too. I think you'll like the PL-8. Olympus limited many of the features, but at least it still has full manual control and Live comp.

  • @anneyoo1893
    @anneyoo1893 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for this step-by-step video on the introduction of how to use this camera. I've searched everywhere for a video like this, but could only find "reviews" on this camera or videos that have showed how professionals have used this to produce amazing pictures, but with no guidance. Your video makes understanding on where to begin, how to navigate the settings, and definitions of photography vocabulary much clearer, so THANK YOU! I will be tuning in for more of your videos.

    Hi Rob. As a complete beginner, I found this video informative, easy to follow and very practical. I think this is about my 3rd YT comment ever, but you deserve nothing but praise and thanking for putting this together. Really appreciate your time for doing this! Subscribed, and can't wait to watch the rest of the OM-D EM10 Mark 2 series

I've been an avid, amateur photographer since the 70's and now I'm finally getting the instruction that will really help me out. Your settings for beginners is AWESOME. I never would have found all of that in the menus. I would have been very frustrated with this camera without your help! Thank you. Thank you.

    Hi Rob, thank you very much for your videos! They’re extremely helpful and are my only ‘go to’ tutorial videos about this camera which I’ve recently purchased. I don’t see much difference between SF jpg and the raw images. Talking about the two differences would also be very helpful. I look forward to more videos. Anything I know about this camera is from you. Thanks again for sharing!

    • @RobTrek
      @RobTrek  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! You won't see much difference between jpg and raw, especially if you get the exposure correct. However, raw has a flexibility in exposure and color that allows you to be more creative and fix problems.

    This is brilliant, thank you. I've had my camera for a few months now and have been messing around a bit with it - but not really understanding what I'm doing. So it's hit and miss whether I get a good picture, unless I'm in Auto! I've read other stuff and looked at other videos, but no-one has explained it with such clarity and meaning for a beginner. So thank you very much for that. I'd love to see many more of these tutorials please :)
