To avoid back pain, I will opt for em 1 MKiii:)))

I thought this was a lens comparison

Hi Sam just watched your video which i enjoyed! I have just bought an EM1X in excellent condition (like new) from MPB for £699.. it's a bit of a beast! but i love it.. not worried about the bird focusing they're too fast for me! I have found changing the batteries a breeze plus i can charge them in camera via USB C..

Salut. Esti roman asa este?

thankyou so much for posting this - keep up the great videos !!!

Darn nuthoarders!

Are you back to Canon from Olympus?

BTW, I have the 2x TC and am going to sell it, will only use the 1.4x TC

Really not a fair comparison using a 2x TC on the 40-150 vs naked 300 f4. In my experience, the 40-150 is as sharp as the 300. I shoot dual X's for my wildlife, BIF, desert landscapes. I also shoot with Nikon's and challenge anybody to really tell the difference between my X's and the Nikon's. Check my bird album on Flickr using the same handle as youtube. Cheers!

Great video i have the same set up. Where is that fantastic location?

Great tips! And very nicely edited video:)

Fantastic images

Love the music 😉

Hi there Sam, I stumbled upon your channel/video by mistake , and boy I was happy, you got yourself a new subscriber, I’m in the process of rebuilding my photography gear , and I was thinking of a Used 1D III and maybe a 400mm f5.6 L lens, but after your video maybe I can squeeze a used OM-D EM-1 and a used 100-400 Panasonic, if I can find in in the same budget then I feel inclined to do it, if not I’ll get more value with the old dslr gear I think. What do you think, thanks for your answer in advance and grat. channel you got , cheers buddy.

Great topic Samuel. I enjoy printing on my small Canon printer. I find that my family members and friends really enjoy getting prints, even if they are not the greatest or the largest.

I agree, seeing a print is a completely different experience compared to viewing on a screen. I would not have agreed until trying it myself. Canon Selphie (hate the name) was a great experience for not a lot of $$ compared to a proper medium or large format printer. Astounding print quality for the price. Good to learn the whole process of printing on before moving up to the big leagues too. Creating a custom profile for your printer's shadow and highlight levels was eye opening. Printing a black gradient from 0-15 (0-256 for this printer) and seeing where the level becomes indistinguisable, and "crushing" your black levels to that point, made Hubble pictures have inky black backgrounds. Prior, the computer did the black interpolation, creating the patchy gradients that you see with streaming services and compression artifacts in dark scenes. Did the same for whites, and clouds started to get a more 3d effect.

wondered why you switched back to full frame?

Sod's law lol

Love this video.

Stunning video and photos.

Great video thanks for all those tips Lynn.

Good job, Sam.

Lots of food for thought in that video, I've only just got the em mark 111 so haven't set it up properly yet as I'm very much an amateur photographer but look forward to learning. I've always used i auto up till now so very nervous about going to manual mode.

I'm enjoying your channel, it's nice to see somebody trying these out.

Brilliant way to get started!

Heya Sam!

I'd better take my old Canon SX50 HS, the quality is much better and you can get sharp photos.

A really beautiful location for wildlife photography! Congratulations on 1k. 😬

Wow loved that Barn Owl footish Samuel and what a wonderful moment captured, well done 👏

What a magical moment Samuel so glad your back clogging.🙏

How wonderful, Sam! I love moments like that..and naturally, they always appear when I’m most unprepared!

SAM! Where have you been? I missed yer face!

Some magical filming there. Gorgeous captures. I noticed - I would take off using some kind of mat to protect my motors from grit and sand. ND filters really only necessary for creating blurring motion in your footage. If the motion is created from flying around I wouldn't be too worried about using them although good to abide with the 180 rule, if you can. If your heart isn't (literally) pumping, you're dead!!!

Good watch, keep them coming.

What a fantastic experience Samuel, just goes to show how unpredictable wildlife is and always when your not prepared… The drone landscape images were nice.. 👍

Absolutely - I totally agree "eye level" is mandatory for a great shot ! Lovely video as always. I don't think I have done much bumping up teh ISO so I'll try that - for sure High iso and low shutter dark shots give poor results. Congrats on 1000 subscribers - testamen to your passion and delivery ;-)

Love Bushy Park... have spent many happy mornings there

Great seeing you back. Congratulations on the subs.

Thank you for sharing :)

Yo!insane vlog!have a good da,

Great video and thanks for the great tips Samuel, congratulations on your 1000 subsrcibers !

Aesome shots of Mink - congrats

Yes, I agree that sometimes it's definitely disappointing but as you have said, they're wildlife, we can't really command them or something. Sometimes it's a bad day for wildlife photography/videography but we do get good and great days. And we always appreciate and learn new things everytime we are in the field.

Very good tips Sam. Just bought an E-M1 Mark III yesterday from ebay. Can't wait to go continue my passion for wildlife/nature photography. You got yourself a new subscriber.

Very nice :)

10 minutes to get to the first ggod point about the R5! "It nailed the focus........" Good info but man you made us earn it😏👍

Beautiful forest 🙂

Nice to see you back Samuel, and with some new gear too... Great images of the Mink, I've only ever seen one wild one before.. 👍
