First impressions of Olympus Pen F camera that arrived yesterday.
One of the things I found when I started adapting pre A series lenses to the Fuji is that they work better on the X-T1 than they do on the Pentax.

Beautiful. A bit lighter than the comparable Fuji offerings but the Fujis feel like blocks of carved steel and I would have no qualms with knocking a nail into a 4X2 with a Fuji. The Pen F feels ever so slightly less robust, but not by much. Love the articulating rear screen including ability to close it facing inward. Perfect. So may knobs and buttons! Hell I won't use half of them. Viewfinder (EVF) is okay - would love a proper rangefinder with OVF - if only the X100 was an interchangeable lens camera. But like DSLRs - what you see is what you get. Menus take a few minutes to get used to, no problem. 5 axis image stabilisation device claims 5 stops of compensation. Haven't tried it yet. Only just figured out the menus. Ordered 2 adapters - both from Kiwi. The PK unit came today and although the K24/2.8 juts out a bit, loved trying it out first. Angle of view similar to a 48mm lens. And so to keep this post on topic, here's a sexed-up Pentax lens..... <http://www.seeingeye.tv/pages/pen.html> Now to drag some test shots onto the Mac....
