Omar: “Below is a link to my new book that I just published.  The book represents an evolution of camera equipment while taking photographs for the past 12-13yrs years.  I started out using SLRs and slide film for my first photographs, then DSLRs, and then moved to m43 (GH1 and E-PM2) and LX3-7 because of their portability while going on 160 km backpacking trips. http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/sinai-omar-attum/1118923689?ean=9789774166617”

Erik: “I just got back from a week-long trip to Iceland and put together this beautiful video I shot with my LX100.  I had my GH4 with me on this trip, but it stayed in my bag for the most part after discovering how much I loved shooting with the LX100.  The video quality is fantastic and pretty close to the quality the GH4 produces.  Here’s the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkvoptWnkxQ”

Sjoerd: “Recently I started a new website about Micro Four Thirds in the Netherlands (in Dutch) http://www.micro-four-thirds.nl. I hope that this site will contribute in the popularity of MFT, as in the media MFT is often overruled by the bigger DSLR brands. On the site I try to blog about photography as wel as video. I’ve added a link to your site. This summer I went with my family to Malaysia where I shot this video on a GH3 http://youtu.be/9ej9hYUkN9k”

Sagie: “Here is a fashion editorial/video art that I filmed with my GH4 camera and infra red (pink) effect (Panasonic 75 – 300mm, 12-35mm 2.8), photographed at The Loch, a natural untouched area in Central Park New York.
