Why I Stayed Loyal to Olympus

In my latest video (click here) I went a little more up close and personal, sharing my journey from an Olympus enthusiast to quitting my job and joining Olympus Malaysia team, then leaving the team and becoming a full time photographer, and finally joining the Olympus Visionary Program. Also, I am sharing the reasons why I believe in the OM-D system and M.Zuiko lenses and how they fit the photography that I do. I thought sharing a bit of information

Everything Wrong With Cameras Today

I personally think there are a lot of aspects that can be improved on the current digital cameras and they are not on par with modern technological trends. I am not saying that the cameras are not good enough - quite the opposite actually, as I have argued about camera sufficiency before. In terms of imaging performance the cameras indeed have made incredible strides but when it comes to user experience, handling, design (both physical and user interface), connectivity, peripheral

Portraits of Strangers

This is not a new topic, I have written extensively about my portrait of strangers photography (click here), but it is now 2020 and I still find myself actively doing street portraits, so I thought why not do an update, but this time in a video format instead?

Olympus M.Zuiko 75mm F1.8 - Truly A Marvelous Lens!

Recently I added two items into my camera bag, one being the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III (which I have blogged here) and a lens that I have been wanting to get for a long time now, the Olympus M.Zuiko 75mm F1.8. The reason it took me so long to finally get the Olympus 75mm prime was simply because it was not the lens that I use frequently, but when I do need the lens, and every time I use

I added an Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III Into My Arsenal, and Some New Street Images

I have decided to add a new camera to my gear list, the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III. I have a few reasons for doing so, and I am exploring them in this blog entry (as well as a new video). I have also taken the E-M5 Mark III out for a quick spin in Chow Kit, KL, as I brought along a friend from Kuching, Kieron Long who wanted to explore KL streets a little more. The E-M5 Mark

Olympus M.Zuiko 12-40mm F2.8 PRO - Still The Must Have Olympus PRO lens!

The Olympus M.Zuiko 12-40mm F2.8 PRO is a highly revered standard wide zoom lens with constant aperture, and has become a staple for many professional working photographers. I personally own this lens and have used it for many years now, and I find it to be the perfect fit for E-M1 series cameras. Optically the lens is superbly made, producing sharp results from corner to corner even at wide open aperture F2.8 across all zoom focal range. The technical lens
