Chermicum: “MFT sensor has an advantage over FF due to larger DoF. This quite extreme macro video was shot with Panasonic GH5 camera and Olympus 60mm macro objective:

It would have been impossible with larger sensors due to too small DoF.”

The Chinese company Meike announced a new lens that is also available as a native MFT mount option: The 85mm f/2.8 Macro. Full info here: mkgrip.com/goods/show-212.html.

All current Meike MFT lenses are listed at Amazon US, Amazon DE, Amazon UK.

Marc: “Here’s our newest installment of Advancing Your Photography: I visited Edward Weston’s house last week and had a tour of it from his grandson Kim Weston. https://youtu.be/bUAKoiRhLR8
This contains very rare information behind Weston’s iconic photographs: How long were his exposures (4-6 hours) and did he use an f/stop higher than 64? Your audience will find out about his approach to photography and composition that they can use to develop their own voice as a photographer. 
We incorporated a 1948 film produced by the US Dept of Information, and photographed and Directed by Willard Van Dyke, a fellow member of Group f/64—we decided to produce our footage in black and white to pay homage to Weston’s B/W work.”
