This article shares a selection of new images captured using handheld in-camera focus stacking HHFS at the RBG (Royal Botanical Gardens) in Burlington Ontario.
Whenever we go out with our cameras to photograph nature there is a risk that our planned subject matter may not appear. Or, that our anticipated shooting conditions may change. So, some flexibility can come in handy.
This article shares a selection of photographs of small critters that were captured handheld with the M.Zuiko 150-600 mm f/5-6.3 IS zoom lens. This lens is not one that many folks would immediately think of using to photograph bees, wasps and other small critters… but it can be an effective choice.
All of the images featured in this article were captured during a short 1.5 hour visit to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington Ontario.
There are occasions when bird photographers can face an obstructed opportunity when the sightline to a potential subject bird is partially blocked. Depending on the camera gear used, and its resident technology, an obstructed opportunity can still yield some decent photographs.
This short article features some sample HHFS (handheld focus stacked) images using the M.Zuiko 12-100 f/4 PRO IS zoom lens… captured at the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory. These photographs demonstrate the old adage that the ‘best camera’ is the one that you have with you.
The opportunity for ongoing personal experimentation is one of the things that I’ve come to love about digital photography. I did a quick scan through some YouTube video titles after doing a search for ‘photography techniques’. I was not surprised to find numerous videos trying to disseminate ‘must do’ advice.
When I dug a little deeper by searching ‘macro photography techniques’… the videos seemed to become even more dogmatic about following specific techniques at the exclusion of all others.
This 90 mm vs 60 mm macro comparison article provides my assessments of these two lenses based on my in-field experiences using the M.Zuiko 90 mm f/3.5 PRO IS and M.Zuiko 60 mm f/2.8 macro lenses.
This article features handheld macro photographs captured late last week with the M.Zuiko 90mm Macro lens around the house. As I’ve gained more experience through my experimentation with the M.Zuiko 90mm f/3.5 PRO IS Macro lens, my approach to this genre of photography has shifted somewhat.
For those of us who enjoy photographing birds, a few moments are often enough for us to feel that our time was well spent. This article shares a few moments with terns that I recently experienced during a visit to Hendrie Valley.
This article provides my M.Zuiko 90mm PRO IS Macro review and is based on a good amount of field work done over the past 6 or 7 weeks. As regular readers know this is not a gear review website. We only do hands-on reviews of equipment that we actually own and use.
Yesterday I spent some time doing a handheld in-camera focus stacking with digital teleconverter test with the M.Zuiko 90 mm f/3.5 PRO IS macro lens. I also had the M.Zuiko MC-14 teleconverter attached as part of my macro set-up.
I figured if I was going to push myself and my gear… I might as well try to break through a new personal, handheld macro boundary by combining the Handheld In-Camera Focus Stacking function with the Digital Teleconverter. And… and throw in the MC-14 for good measure.
