What i'm amazed about in these flower videos is the cameras IBIS allows you to handhold taking the beautiful shots you made, proof of how versatile these cameras are. Great video.

Rob another great video. You explore and demonstrate the amazing techniques that are possible using an Olympus m4/3 camera like no one on YouTube.I was pleased to see Peter Forsgard recommends you as one of his top YouTube channels to watch.Congratulations.

I recently got myself a nice lil macro lens and now I know what I'll be trying out this weekend :)

Another charming photo. I like how you control the settings of the Olympus camera to make great creative shots 👍

Thank you so much for the beautiful inspiration you give us and the amount of work that you put into these tutorials! I take a lot out of this and it really helps me to improve and try out new things..
I love the way that you shows how to get great images out of basic gear and simple settings.

Great video. I never realized how much adjustment you can do in camera to create such great photos.

Great video Rob. Not only are you giving a tip of using external light for highlights but you really demostrated how a we can work three exposure functions (Aperature, Time, and Sensitivity) to get your desired results. That bit of a breeze you had wasn't helping either...

Great pictures! Maybe changing the metering to spot weighted will help?

Hi Rob, Does "Highlight & Shadow Control" affect JPEG image only, or RAW + JPEG ?

[asadbaig]

hello Sir... how are you?
sir this Extension Tube work with Electronic kit lens? i have pancake kit lens so its work with autofocus with that lens ? and which company Extension tube is better ?

Cool effects, Rob. Cardboard wind breaker might have reduced flower movements. Dogs steal the show all the time.

I have 60mm f2.8 can I do those tricks or do I need the macro extension?

[kennynvakehve]

I have the standard lens for my E520 and going to use them on a OM-D E-M10 Im hoping to buy...question is..do I need those extension tubes if I have to buy an 4/3's to micro 4/3's adapter?
