I thought it about time to update you all on my equipment/shooting
changes. The following changes in my life have caused me to alter my
photography somewhat: 1) Due to aging - near vision causing me to
need reading glasses 2) Last child finishing up soccer - changing my
need/desire to shoot sports on large fields 3) 2nd daughter becoming
an accomplished portrait/wedding photographer and needing better
equipment 4) My desire to have lightweight, small walk-around camera
to keep with me most of the time.
To that end, I have done the following: My daughter has been given my
fairly new K-5iis and DA* 16-50 and DA* 50-135 I have purchased an
Olympus OM-D E-M10 with small kit lens and small telezoom. Along
with that I got an adapter for my remaining Pentax lenses of which I
think the M 50/1.4, Tamron 90/2.8 macro and A 70-210/4 will see some
use. I still have a K10D and a well used K-5 at my disposal with some
lenses that can be used but don't anticipate much use from them at
this point.
I am happy with the Olympus - the articulating screen allows me to
shoot at waist level with my reading glasses on and the viewfinder
fits nicely above the glasses when shooting that way. The size is
great and the results are plenty good for what I am doing at this
time.
I'm enjoying the Fuji system for exactly the same reasons.
