I’ve had the M.Zuiko 60mm f/2.8 macro lens since last year, but it wasn’t before I recently invested in a flash (Olympus FL-900R) and a diffuser (Cygnustech) that I felt like I started to get some macro images that I was happy with. In this post I’ll show the images that I got on a […]

OM System Pro Capture
One of my absolute favorite features of the OM System is Pro Capture, the ability to “go back in time” to shoot the action. I will always look for opportunities to use this feature as it can create some really impactful images.
