Jan:I did a little comparison of the sharpness of the new 25mm F/1.2 Pro and the 12-40mm F/2.8 Pro. I thought, you might be interested. The comparison is available at my blog (https://goo.gl/t4kMza) and on Youtube (https://youtu.be/yB8gi6MEx8Y).

Dave:Here is my video showing the LX15 in action, compared to the Canon G7xII. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viyZSJbdq-I&t=5s

Dennis:I would really like to share the work we have done on our old and beloved GH4, to show what it still is able to achieve! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsQzEgiWoD8

Andrew:I built my own website to showcase my photography. I thought it would be relevant as it’s 100% micro four thirds. So perhaps if you have a slow news day it might be of interest to you. The portfolio and blogs are getting updated more frequently now and I’ve got a couple more blogs to get uploaded in the near future.

Brad:Selfie Shooters in candid Camera…which is of course about shooting portraits on the street of other people taking selfies, it is a lot of fun and includes tech info as well. The important bit for this site is that all the pics were taken with the Olympus EM5 mk 2 and the diminutive Panasonic 35-100 f4-5.6 zoom.
