OM-D: CREATE YOUR OWN WORLD
A new digital SLR era is about to begin. Digital SLRs, which simply replaced fi lm with an imaging device,
did not change signifi cantly in terms of size, weight and user interface. The revolutionary, new mirrorless
camera, the OM-D, has an exceptionally light and compact body. Its Electronic Viewfi nder enables
photographers to check the Art Filter effect, colour temperature and exposure levels in real-time. When
shooting, you can instantly create a truly unique world and preserve it in exceptional quality. The world will
be transformed from something you see to something you take part in. The OM-D is a groundbreaking, new
digital interchangeable-lens camera, perfect for people who want to take part, create, and share.

HOW TO USE RAW
Need to store your
pictures safely? We look at the
six best online backup services
were recently
discussing the
fact that we’d
like to upgrade
our cameras but,
with limited funds, we weren’t
at all sure we could get what we
really wanted, so we came up
with the idea of sharing a camera.
And yes, I can already hear you
gasp with horror, but let me
reassure you that she is not only
a very good friend, she is also a
great photographer and treats her
equipment with all the respect
and care that I lavish on mine.
We have discussed ‘pre-nuptials’
and ‘access’ and are in broad
agreement. She works freelance
so would be more likely to use a
high end camera during the week,
while I, being desk bound, are
more likely to use it at weekends
and days off. We’d have a buy-
out option if one of us became
inordinately attached to it, and
there would be a review every 12
months. We each made a list of
our requirements, which pretty
well coincided, and have started
to think about what we will buy.
We haven’t made our decision but
it’s all very exciting.
What I would like to know is
are there other camera-sharers
out there? If there are (and that
would be consoling because it
would prove that we aren’t totally
mad) what are your experiences? I
look forward to hearing from you!
What we’re planning next
