[TLxOlympus] Olympus OMD EM-1 Perfect for Travel | My Personal Review

by Travellover23 - November 15, 2018

Hi peeps, it been a long time i using the Olympus OMD EM-1 i received from the Olympus team.

I had tried some feature during my travel and some photoshooting event. I had its best lens as well which is the Mzuiko 12-40mm lens. This lens was perfect landscape shooting.

This time i quite impressed by the sample raw photo that i taken. I love some of the features of this camera. Check out my travel photo.

Weather proof

Olympus E-M1 users can select from a range of system accessories that are also dust and splash-proof to shoot in the severest conditions. Highly protective performance against sand and dust, and splashes is assured when used in combination. It was suitable shooting in snowing or rainy season.

Live Composite Mode

Time lapse Mode

If you plan to do some overnight video shoot and some long motion video, OMD EM-1 can do it because the time lapse frame can set up to 999 photos! And you can set the movie frame resolution mode into full HD, HD or 4K.

Stabilization

With the hand grip part, i can grab the camera without the camera strap. It give me a comfortable feel when i taking photo or video. Sometimes i even i hold it in one hand, i can get a steady photo and video.

If you plan to take a stable vlog, Olympus OMD EM-1 really suitable for you as they have 5-axis image stabilisation and electronic stabilisation for movies. It is more stable compare to my previous vlog.Check out my Hatyai video

If you plan to buy a high functional camera, you may consider this Olympus OMD EM-1 camera. And the lens you can consider for Mzuiko 12-40mm lens beside the prime lens. But it will quite heavy for 12-40mmlens if carry for long hours but i willing to use it because i can take perfect photo.
