Hahaha. I remember hearing this question at every photowalk I attended. Hehehe. It's good to stay alert to any settings we change. I keep your setup checklist on your blog bookmarked. 😄
Great video thanks a lot, Robin! I was one of that guys who sent you a comment wanting to know how you shoot such sharp images. Now you have given us the most complete answer! Great work!!!
Hi Robin, I had found u in TH-cam and I’m very happy. I’m an amateur photograper and my gear is olympus too. I learn very much with u. So, thanks a lot. Ciao

RE Fungus .. I live in Southeast Asia too and this summer had a trip overseas for more than a month ... this got to a few things (an old leather bracelet was completely covered) but my second camera which had the lenses i did not take was fine. I did check all of them and did some cleaning. So yes I bought a drybox after that :D Around $100 to keep everything safe. I also got a wifi AC controller linked to a Temp/Humidity sensor so I can automatically run the AC if humidity or temperature in the room gets too high, the room is in general well insulated but after a whole a month during typhoon season it builds up ..
@@robinwong no, but with smart devices like a temperature and humidity monitoring device I can set the ac to turn on if one value exceed a limit I defined. The drybox makes the obsolete but other stuff like headphones or computer equipments in my office might not like high humidity so I can set it so that the AC turns on above 70% or 30c which helps a lot. A smart home solution costs less than the drybox BTW ($100). I think it was $12 for the ac controller and $10 for the the temperature/humidity sensor plus $20 for the gateway/voice activated controller. When not at home for a long time humidity can creep up to 90% which isn't good ....
Now that is the kind of topic and humour I think suits a video. I read the points on the blog, have not seen this video, I am moving around. You said "fingerprint on front lens element" - how about fingerprint on the back lens element? I've done that. In fact, several more just occurred to me....
You forgot dirty glasses when looking at the final image or when post processing. I once spent a long time trying to sharpen a “soft image” and finally made do with the results. Later I realized my glasses had a smudge on them and after cleaning them the originals looked sharp and the processed ones didn’t.
What a list! This explains some of my blurry images. I find dust on the sensor to be the biggest problem (changing the lens), because you can only recognize it during editing - especially annoying with video recordings.
Brilliant video Robin! Makes me think... Could you do a video on how to reset an olympus and then choose the best initial set up. Also a pre shoot list of checks might be appropriate... When we screw up a once in a lifetime opportunity because we forgot the memory card, or didn't charge the battery, or had the iso still set for evening, it is so frustrating. You probably do these things without thinking, out of habit, but those of us who shoot occasionally need some prompts. Thank you for your generosity in sharing so much information with us!
As a brand new photographer and a new OM-D owner I find your content invaluable. While some of your tips may be obvious to a seasoned photographer it's all new to me, thank you!
Hello Robin.. another great learning experience from you ! The other thing #44?) that happened to me is my eyesight !! I was taking photos with my glasses through the view finder.. ( not the screen) and I had the viewfinder scrolled set to my eyesight.. so that does NOT work with my glasses on : ) ... make sure that the view finder is set to your eyes.. so that it is crisp with your particular eyesight. ( and then remember to take your glasses off ) : )
Thanks for covering all the bases ! My panasonic camera has AFS, AFC & AFF for focusing. The AFF is called ' Auto Focus Flexible ' where the camera is constantly readjusting the focus. Engage the focus button & as the camera moves focus is always re-acquired. In theory it sounds ok but after your explanation regarding this & it's foibles - faster battery drain & iffy focus -, I will not use it. Thanks.
Haha that was the perfect video and perfect performans Robin. I am a new guy for m4/3 and i am suffering to getting sharp images my em10 mark 2 too. That was a very informative video for me, thank you so much.
Appreciate the effort and research you put into these images. I can tell you’re a good man. 43 reasons for blurred photos. Who does that? Rockin’ Robin does. Are you into shooting video too. Site seems more photocentric.
A most comprehensive list, Robin! One tip you should've emphasized (kind of relates to the "one hand shooting"): use the EVF whenever possible. Shooting using the LCD monitor, with your arms stretched out, is less stable and could cause unsharpness. I was guilty of that with my E-M5 (only because the EVF was not very good). With my E-M5 MkIII, I use the EVF whenever possible.
Hi Robin, thank you so much for all the information you are sharing in this video. My EM10ll just seems now a high end camera, compared to what it was before I applied the settings that you shared. Please keep up the great work you are doing so far. I'm a big fan of your work. I like the way you explain the things. Have lots of success (I think you already have it :D ) Cheers
Don’t think this was mentioned - failing to disable the IS system for long tripod-supported exposures. I’m always forgetting to do this. Also for long exposures, the wind. Couldn’t figure out why my 40 sec exposures were soft. Finally realised the slight breeze was vibrating my camera.
hello, I noticed that already the whole aperture (F4) is already very clear. I shoot with an EM1-MK3 in ETTR mode and I think that it cannot be sharper and more detailed. Thanks your videos are very explanatory and fun.
One really important point u forgot is the picture styles. In my panasonic g9 for example the portrait modus makes the pictures look a lot softer than standard mode
For #9 and #14...switching the drive mode to custom delay (say 1 second) can be a good solution for those of us with shaky hands. For #41 (digital teleconverters), what if I reached the limit of optical zoom, and my subject still doesn't adequately fill the frame? Say a small bird in a tree. Yes digital zoom wouldn't help with resolution but wouldn't it help (slightly) with focus, metering and white balance?
Great list, I have one more; to have infinity focus set automatically for astrophotography do not always count on using the lens reset button to give you the infinity focus. Three of my four lenses do, one does not (17 f1.8, 12-50 f3.5-6.3, 75-300: f4.8-6.7- YES, 9-18 f4-5.6 NO. I should have fully tested this before trying. Thanks again
I learn very much with yours videos. Thanks a lot! Can you suggest me a video "How to clean Camera Body and lenses" ? It will be very appreciate. Thanks again.
Hi Robin, recently I bought an Olympus OMD EM 5 Mk 2 replacing my beautiful OMD EM 10 Mk 2... Got two questions: 1. Maybe it's my eye, but I noticed that the EM 5 Mk 2 EVF (even after menu correction) is a little too dark and pixeling respect EVF of the OMD Mk2... Maybe because is an Oled one? 2. Processing images from 1600 ISO to higher values, I noticed that on the EM 5 Mk 2 the images seems more noise/grain respect the OMD 10 Mk2... Both cameras use the True Pic VII sensor... Maybe one is more 'refined' than the other or am I wrong? Thank you so much! And great Olympus!
When you start at the beginning, it's not about camera settings - so many so-called photographers don't even know how to hold their camera - Like you mentioned about a good tri-pod, you need good support under your camera and a thumb is not enough - cradle the weight of the camera in the palm of your left hand and tuck your elbow down on your ribs ! The right hand is only for manipulating the controls of the camera ........
Yeap, something as simple as holding the camera. I won't impose a strict technique, everyone has different ways, as long as it is comfortable and steady.
Thank you brother. Please list these 43 reasons here. Even without explanation, just a list. (This is for those who have difficulty understanding rapid speech in English.)
Hi Robin. Cool. Amazing that sometimes I can take a sharp picture :-). Do you have any experience with using electronic silent mode at 600 mm long focal lengths? Apparently the photos come out sharper?
I'm not sure there's a bad tripod. Yere are tripods unsuitable for what you want to do. I have a Manfrotto tripod, It's not one for the beach, but in a quiet corner it should hold and E-, maybe an EM-! safely.
Reason 44, my photos are blurry until I put on my glasses. People are looking at your photos at a distance. they view their own image close up. Age takes it's toll.
I don't really understand why modern cameras have so many focus points! No camera/lens can precisely focus on every object over the entire viewfield. The camera's CPU may electronically calculate an estimated "average" distance to get most objects in acceptable focus, but that's the best all those hundreds of focusing points can achieve. It's sort of like relying on hyperfocal lens distance focusing which works very well in most cases but not in every single case. Perhaps since I come from the days of film cameras, I still use only one single, center focusing point on my digitals and simply recompose as necessary. This works perfectly for stationary objects but can also be used quite effectively for moving objects by pre-focusing on a "substitute" object at the correct expected distance of the object in motion - perhaps not always yielding the perfect outcome but more often than not giving a very acceptable or even a perfect result. In addition, some very interesting and stimulating photographs come from properly panning moving subjects, but for still subjects, one accurate autofocusing point is all you really need.
Cheap Filters! I bought some filters from a well know manufacturer, they seemed OK till I bought a 75-300mm f4.8-6.7 II. I struggled to get sharp photos of small birds at a distance, then I noticed some artefacts where eg high contrasty horizontal lines were duplicated in the image - as if I was shooting through eg double glazing. A few tests with and without various filters and that was the issue. Bought a more expensive version from the same manufacturer and all is now OK. Lesson Learned and replaced all "budget" version filters.
Why? Because you don't trust the camera with C-AF in video, single focus on the column to the right, then stay 15cm in front of the plane of focus? ;)) Thanks for the videos Robin, long time fan.
In case you missed it, I did a video previously on how to get SHARP images from your OM-D cameras: th-cam.com/video/4jQMI5HPkvg/w-d-xo.html
“It’s the haze Bro, haze” 😁 You’re the best!

You've just blown my mind how many reasons you've thought about and all of them valid. Well done!!!
Thanks for the kind words!
You are getting better with your video productions...👍
Thanks! I would like to think so too!
No brother, you wrong not 43 reason, but 44.
The 44th reason is “you haven’t seen this video” ...hahahahaha... LOL 🤣. Thanks bro, n God bless you
He's not Wrong, he's Wong!
Hi Robin! Thanks as usual for a good video. One warning though! 6:13 If you go to Peter and Matti in Finland, the Finnish people drink most coffee in the world!!! Greetings from Sweden that only comes in second on the list.
Coffee is life!
you are doing such a good job Robin much respect brother
Thanks man! Appreciate the support!
wow, that 'fungus growth' point I never really thought of that! Thank you, Robin for recommending to purchasing a dry box!
Robin, Thanks for the extensive list. A lot of great points for people to consider. Great job!
No worries, glad I could share!
Excellent video. So much useful information. Thanks

All points raised are relevant. Thanks for putting them up, Robin Wong. Hope those would be photographers would take note of these advices.
Thanks and i hope so too!
That was truly an impressive list. Thanks for the useful tips.
Thanks, glad the list helps!
Excellent vid Robin! Thanks for that exhaustive effort! 😎
Hello Robin, thank you for your big list of possibilities for producing unsharp Images. You are a practical men!!!
You got that right, I am a practical man
44: "focus breathing" With some lenses, (specifically the Lumix 25mm f1.7) when you change the f-stop the focus can move.

This video helps me a lot even with my epl-8 Mr. Robin Wong! Thank you!
Interesting point about shooting low sequential burst when shooting with continuous AF. I'm just going to go change that now!
Now that is the kind of topic and humour I think suits a video. I read the points on the blog, have not seen this video, I am moving around.
You said "fingerprint on front lens element" - how about fingerprint on the back lens element? I've done that.
In fact, several more just occurred to me....
Oh yessssss that could happen too! Haha, the list grows.

Oh yes, sensor on dust is a problem. But I don't think that can cause image softness. But the dust spots are annoying indeed.

Robin for points 16 and 17 always have silca bags inside camera bag all the time that helps with moisture
Silica gel is not as effective as a drybox, where you can monitor the humidity level.

Great topic Robin! Can you really tell sharpness using the LCD screen? At what screen magnification do you get to see all the pixels?
Please, can we have subtitles ?
S-Af with low sequential shooting. wish you could show us where that is on the camera? I've looked and looked on my OMD E-M1 II. Thank you

Hi Robin, may I have your further explanation on the focus limiter setting that will cause blurry images ?
Really appreciate the passion :-) Yeah, lots of silly little things in there that we're all guilty of .
I am also guilty!
Hi Robin, recently I bought an Olympus OMD EM 5 Mk 2 replacing my beautiful OMD EM 10 Mk 2...
Got two questions:
1. Maybe it's my eye, but I noticed that the EM 5 Mk 2 EVF (even after menu correction) is a little too dark and pixeling respect EVF of the OMD Mk2... Maybe because is an Oled one?
2. Processing images from 1600 ISO to higher values, I noticed that on the EM 5 Mk 2 the images seems more noise/grain respect the OMD 10 Mk2...
Both cameras use the True Pic VII sensor... Maybe one is more 'refined' than the other or am I wrong?
Thank you so much!
And great Olympus!

@Rifleman7kw Photographers should learn from hunters how to "shoot", we are very much doing the same thing...
Thank you brother. Please list these 43 reasons here. Even without explanation, just a list. (This is for those who have difficulty understanding rapid speech in English.)
Hi Robin. Cool. Amazing that sometimes I can take a sharp picture :-). Do you have any experience with using electronic silent mode at 600 mm long focal lengths? Apparently the photos come out sharper?
Diffraction is not an unknown concept to me. Do you test each of your lenses to find the best apertures for the lense? If so how?
Just stay below F8 if possible and you should be fine.
I'm not sure there's a bad tripod. Yere are tripods unsuitable for what you want to do. I have a Manfrotto tripod, It's not one for the beach, but in a quiet corner it should hold and E-, maybe an EM-! safely.
Oh but there are horrible ones! I'd gladly show you some.
Another one: forgetting that you have set the camera to use back-button focus. So you press the shutter button but AF doesn't engage.
Yeap the list goes on!
3 dislikes are from canon/nikon users who just bought their cameras and now regrets it. 😃
Possibly!

Reason 44, my photos are blurry until I put on my glasses. People are looking at your photos at a distance. they view their own image close up. Age takes it's toll.
It is a small shame you have titled this about Micro 4/3 images... these excellent points apply to every camera I’ve ever owned. Good video, Robin.
A lot of the points are very Olympus and Panasonic specific though!
@@robinwong Fair enough... but there are many that are not brand dependent. Haze for example, and having the IS turned off. Good video none the less.
I don't really understand why modern cameras have so many focus points! No camera/lens can precisely focus on every object over the entire viewfield. The camera's CPU may electronically calculate an estimated "average" distance to get most objects in acceptable focus, but that's the best all those hundreds of focusing points can achieve.

This works perfectly for stationary objects but can also be used quite effectively for moving objects by pre-focusing on a "substitute" object at the correct expected distance of the object in motion - perhaps not always yielding the perfect outcome but more often than not giving a very acceptable or even a perfect result. In addition, some very interesting and stimulating photographs come from properly panning moving subjects, but for still subjects, one accurate autofocusing point is all you really need.

Here's one you missed. Touch to focus. Touch the screen with nose while using viewfinder.
