It seems the more "endangered" the camera, the happier I am with the shot.

I have a 40MP full-frame E-mount camera with all the bells and whistles; and the E-Mount system is going strong.

But I also have older #MFT cameras; a system in decline: Olympus is gone, OM System is meh, and Panasonic now only caters to the bigger-is-better crowd.

Yet nothing beats the joy of capturing a nice shot with my trusty old 16mp PEN (even though the 40mp full frame pic would probably be nicer)

I hope OM Systems (formerly Olympus) will survive their turbulence and focus on neat little proper cameras. To me their cameras just feel alright when taking pictures.

Not as alright as my Pentax cameras did, but much more than my Panasonic GH6.

I even found myself thinking of buying a more recent Olympus/OM Systems for photography, but then again… not even the GH6 is making any money in video currently, which is what I had bought it for.

The portrait of this horse has all it needs.

I have an E-PL9, quite some of the pictures in my Pixelfed account were taken with that one. Unfortunately it doesn't have the connector for optional things any more, such as the external audio input. Because actually for occasional video stuff it works surprisingly well, too. Except for the internal mics. I still use it a lot for taking pictures.

I often use Panasonic stabilized lenses with it. Also the Panasonic pancake because things get even smaller then, but I start being annoyed by the low quality of the Panasonic 14-42 pancake.

Which lens did you use for the horse portrait?

I can see that, I almost got that Olympus 45mm for myself.

Another fun inexpensive and still small lens is the Olympus 60mm f2.8 macro. Not that easy to get the focus on point, but so many fun possibilities.
