Olympus OM-1 For Wildlife Photography - Better Than Expected!

[@RichAdamsFineArt]

I think you showed why so many hikers and outdoor enthusiasts really enjoy micro four-thirds cameras. Having an 800mm camera lens that you can just tote around with you is amazing to anyone who grew up in the film days. I ALWAYS carry my MFT camera with me on hikes, the full frame almost always gets left when I'm not sure what I might shoot that day. Great video, Duade! Love your enthusiasm for the outdoors! Very infectious!

[@Duade]

My pleasure Rich, it is a wonderful kit for hiking that is for sure. Cheers, Duade

[@nicktasteless360]

you are the best reviewer, nobody wants to see some random youtuber talking for hours about camers specs in their "office". We wanna he how the equipment handles on the field and you cover everything that we all really cared about. good job as always

[@enigmabletchley6936]

I watch a lot of wildlife photography videos and I can honestly say this is one of the best. I live in the UK so Australian birds are unknown to me so even more interesting to see and you captured them beautifully.. I like how you show both the finished and RAW shot, that is very instructive. I am close to my eighth decade and carry weight is now a serious issue for me when out birding, you have pretty much convinced me with this video that my future lies with Olympus. I've subscribed and look forward to more content.

[@mickmckean7378]

It's just wonderful to see how happy a bloke can be rolling around in mud on a cold morning trying to get a photo of a small bird going about its day. I can totally understand it of course, as you said "where else would you rather be?". As for whether to go out or not, as they say "the more you go out, the luckier you get". Nice work Duade, nature is just the best.

[@Duade]

Thanks Mick, 100% agree and yes, I would never have dreamed 15 years ago that laying in the mud watching little birds wander around could evoke so much excitement and joy. I am really grateful I discovered it. Cheers, Duade

[@mattdp846]

There's something special about this video. It gives off good vibes.

[@brucegraner5901]

Enjoyed watching you enjoy the outing. I know MFT will never be "better" than full-frame BUT there's a lot to be said for the sense of freedom you get with a lighter kit and with the performance improvements of the OM-1 and noise reduction software I think micro-four-thirds will become an increasingly viable option for serious photographers. Thanks for giving MFT a chance and a platform.

[@Duade]

My pleasure Bruce, it is a wonderful camera for sure, I look forward to continuing to use it. Cheers, Duade

[@joshuax8]

@@Duade Wonderful review, love to see the enthusiasm! You seemed to have a lot of fun with this camera and I was wondering if you still use it and if you'll be reviewing the OM-1 Mark II! I'm currently looking into a camera upgrade (from a Nikon D3200) to either a R6 Mark II or a OM-1 Mark II and the price (also of the lenses) seem really attractive for the OM-1. Any thoughts?

[@Duade]

@@joshuax8 G'day, apologies for the delay, yes, still use the OM-1 from time to time, I find the AF for BIF very good and enjoy using the 300 f4, a very light kit. The R6II and 200-800 would be another kit but a lot heavier and bigger. Nikon cannot be far away from a D500 mirrorless which paired with one of their light primes would be amazing or one of their zoom lenses. Almost too many options, Cheers, Duade

[@laku4412]

Wow, what a morning! Thank you for taking us with you! :)

[@TITAOSTEIN]

It is fantastic that we have so many wonderful Cameras capable of high level wildlife photography! The OM1 give us the freedom to be in the nature with no complaints about weather, or capabilities, or size and weight! I just bring my OM1 (+ Oly 12-100 and Leica 100-400) for my climbing adventures in the Mountains and combine my favorite hobbies perfectly! I really hope that the M43 system remain strong, keeping profitability in a FF hyped world. Like you I use different systems and sometimes FF is the system to choose, but in MANY occasions I just want to be in the Nature to FEEL the Nature, and I want the right equipment with me that gives me this Freedom!

[@richardprovost6148]

Thanks for sharing this photo outing. I must say that I am blown away by the auto focus capabilities of that OM-1 that you just shown. Back-lit or low light , the camera looked like it was picking up and tracking the birds effortlessly. I have been looking for an « affordable » lightweight mirorless replacement for my D500 and 200-500 combo for a couple of years now, and I think that without trying, you just sold me on that OM system combo.

[@zayacz123]

I think you’d love the system. The size, weight, quality and price of the OM 1 make it a really fun system. Ok! Ill admit it. I’m a Fan Boy.

[@forresthogue3532]

I own the OM1 and the 300 f4 and I can assure you you’re making a great choice! I switched from the Sony A1 because I was amazed with how fantastic the OM1 is. I’ve never had more fun with a camera and it’s so effortless to nail all types of shots!

[@Rbraden]

Came from a Nikon Z6 and D500 using the 200-500 to the Oly system, EM1X with this 100-400 shown. Im glad I swapped.

[@JeffreyJohnsonC]

I love how you show the raw files before editing. Looking at a lot of photography channels you'd think the images came straight out of camera perfect. Also fun to see you with the OM Systems camera. I've been an Olympus fan for years, though I didn't get an Olympus m43 camera until 2019. Still using that E-M1 Mark II today.

[@Duade]

Thanks Jeffrey, yes the editing is the final step in the process and helps to create the images I have in my mind. Cheers, Duade

[@bricenoh]

Nice photos. I love how you show the RAW photos. My take away is to lower one's exposure to have lower iso more speed.

[@JasonOFlaherty]

As I’m getting ready to go spend a day in the office, I appreciate you sharing the outdoors with me today. Really a nice way to relax in the morning

[@RichardCookphotography]

Great video Duade. A beautiful setting. The OM1 is a fab camera which offers so many features for the wildlife photographer. I make videos on my youtube channel mostly about the OM1 and it's a camera and m43 a system, that are very misunderstood by many people. Great results for less than the competitors. Well done😀😀

[@lesandisdream5290]

This is what I love on your videos. The ones you are out on the field. Being overcome with emotion at the glory of nature is something I wonder if others felt the same way. Keep up the great work.

[@PhotoReactionVideos]

The Olympus OM-1 with the 100-400mm Panasonic Lens (or the Olympus equivalent) is simply the best value for money wildlife set-up currently available! AF, TRUE weather sealing, size and weight and feature packed! Thank you for the video Duade 😊

[@forresthogue3532]

I own the OM1 and the 300 f4 and I LOVE it! I switched over from Sony A1 and never looked back! It’s such a fun camera to use. If you think the OM1 and 100-400 is great, try the OM1 and 300 f4 combo because it’s pure magic and the images are just👌🏼

300mm is to short..

[@forresthogue3532]

@@Jakutz74 OM system and Olympus camera body’s has a crop factor of 2x so when you put the 300mm on, it becomes a 600mm! That’s why the lens is magic because you get a tiny lens but has the view of a 600mm

I also appreciate that you used the middle of the road gear, that setup, while not cheap, is certainly a lot more affordable than the same body with the 150-400 which is out of reach for many of us. Thanks for taking us along!

[@tordandreasson]

Hi Duade. Love the ground-level perspective footage, I'm impressed by the very nice photos of the Dotterels. If you have the chance then I suggest you try the OM-1 with the "PRO" lenses (300 F/4 or 150-400 F/4.5, the latter is however very difficult to get hold of as the demand is much higher than the supply). Then you will be able to take advantage of SH2 @50 fps. Furthermore, these lenses are weather and dust sealed so should you happen to drop the gear in the mud then just rinse it under the tap or shower. Cheers, Tord.

[@DavidZemanWildlife]

Hi, intested it against 200-600 Sony on A1. Benefit of the lens for the price unfortunately wasn’t there. It’s truly amazing piece of glass. Once you compared real world examples with resolution 1:1 on camera like that, a1 is even with smaller relative focal length better

Hello ❤to see your video all the time Have you compèred the Om1 with Sony a7iv which one you recommend to public for wildlife photography plz thanks keep up the good work 📷📷

[@Travelingseniors-xt9yh]

Duade I enjoyed your videos before you bought your OM1 but as a long time Olympus user and an OM1 owner for over a year, this video brought a big smile to my face. My wife shoots with a Sony A7R4 and a 200-600 and in the conditions you shoot in this video with her 60mp and high dynamic range she would beat me everytime except for flight shots. However, we recently spent a moth in Panama shooting birds in very difficult conditions. Half the time we are hiking through dense forest trying to photograpgh small birds while squating down shooting between branches (tripods are useless here) with dificult light. This is where the speed, autofocus and incredible ibis of the OM1 with my compact 300F4 meant it easily out performed my wifes A7R4 and I suspect almost any other system on the market. Just a couple of tips, first I believe from your video you were using C-AF with tracking. When using subject detection turn off tracking and use just C-AF. Second I found that grass seems to distract the autofocus more than branches like when you were shooting the parrots. I suggest using a smaller focus area and keep it above the grass. This is where subject detection is a game changer. No longer do we have to try to "get the eye". all you have to do is touch the bird with the autofcus area and subject detection will lock on quickly and do the rest.

[@villehyvarinenphoto]

Great photos! As many have suggested I would also recommend trying out the 300mm F4 IS PRO lens, its quite a bit sharper even with the MC-14 teleconverter and has way bettery image stabilization, because the 300mm supports Sync IS. I also recommend ETTR with Olympus/OM SYSTEM cameras. The sensors aren't that good at recovering shadows, but are capable of recovering highlights. Even with the higher ISOs the noise isn't a problem, because of the great noise reduction softwares we have now (eg. Lightroom new denoise, DxO Pure Raw etc.)

Fantastic light and spot Duade. Love my OM-1 but I use the 300 F4 and sometimes the 1.4 teleconverter. This lens is razor sharp as well as the 40-150 F 2.8. The 100-400 is a little soft at the long end but still a great lens. I would love to be able to afford the 150-400 F4.5 that is the ultimate lens for birding. As for tracking, the only time I use it is for a clear shot eg a bird with only sky background, try the pro capture you will be amazed ! Cheers from New Zealand

You are so lucky to live in an area with such vast nature. I have to share tiny spots with dozens of other people doing their free time things.

I shoot with an OM-1 so that makes it that little bit more relatable despite you shooting in pretty much perfect conditions vs my constant struggle with the gloominess of the UK 😅 I'd suggest if you can have a go with the 150-400, it has the sharpness of the 300 F4 with the versatility of the 100-400 (at a premium for sure). Anyhow, and brands aside, your videos always get the creative juices flowing and make me want to get out, so if only for that, Thanks!
