I switched from APS-C last year to M43. I wanted something more compact and lighter for street and documentary photography. I have a Lumix GX85 and two Panasonic Leica prime lenses. Very happy with the quality of the lenses and small size of the camera. Something like the Sony A7C and two compact Sony lenses would work for me but it was 2.5 times the price. DXO Pure Raw is fantastic for removing noise. I am very happy with this system.

The quality of a picture depends on 1 : YOUR EYES. 2 : your technical mastery. 3 : the right lens. Nobody ever told me "Great picture, too bad you took it with the wrong sensor".

Your Nikon night photos are stunning! At least you had the opportunity to produce such beautiful photos. I could relate to your style - no tripod, moving around a lot - macro - easy accessibility - affordable. I got a used Lumix G85 and usually use a 14-140 telephoto, image stabilization, for landscape and macro. I can get in close to flowers with sharpness and the telephoto when out gives good dramatic landscape and walk around shots. I love the small size of the micro 4/3 and its lenses. Enjoyed your video.

I went from film to 4/3 to FF to m4/3. No the objective image quality of m4/3 does not reach that of FF, but the difference is either small or manageable (high ISO). So for me m4/3 means good enough image quality with way lower total system weight - a very good compromise. The fact that I can go out for a nature walk or a hike with a proper camera plus 3 quality lenses at a combined weight of just about 1Kg means a lot. New advanced features like hand-held high resolution mode improves the image quality for landscapes further.

And nowadays light and cheap lenses are also available for full frame camera systems - my Fifty Nifty Canon RF 50mm/1.8 weights only 160 grams, and delivers better image quality than a 25mm lens on a mFT camera. So I sold all my OM System gear and went to Canon R full frame. I am very happy and productive with my Canon R6 MkII, which is the most versatile and practical camera I ever owed. Highly recommended!

Depends what type of photography you do. Bodies can be similar size but telephoto lenses are much smaller for MFT. I use both MFT and FF. Both have strengths and weaknesses. MFT is best for Macro, Wildlife (when it involves hiking) or handheld with long exposures as IBS is much better in MFT as easier to move a smaller sensor to compensate. FF is much better dynamic range, shallow depth of field and resolution. APS-C is a great compromise as sits in the middle. Good at most things but excels at nothing. There is no best camera system only the best for you.

The advantages of MFT over larger sensors are many--it's really a matter of how much overkill you think you need. Anything much over 20-25MP is wasted (why else would Canon's new US$6,200 flagship EOS R1 have "only" 24MP?). I'd never be able to get a lot of the great images I've been able to produce if I had a lug around larger, heavier lenses with much higher minimum focusing distances and less DoF flexibility. Oly/OM's great, but I prefer Lumix ergo/menus, so I mainly use a G9, G9M2, and GX85 (when I want to travel even lighter) and can often carry 12-800mm EFL (I'm up to nine MFT lenses at this point and all of them together weigh less than some individual "FF" telephotos). I also use a bridge camera (Lumix FZ1000--easy to use one-handed when walking the dogs) and when I really need to go compact (or underwater), there's the Oly TG-5. Even the one-inch and 1/2.3" sensors in those, respectively, are more than enough to make very nice, large prints most of the time, so MFT feels "luxurious" by comparison. Unless you have a very specific need, anything larger is a waste of money and an unnecessary strain on your back/neck for the maybe one in several thousand images where it might make a small difference. The tech has simply gotten to the point where sensor size matters little. Even phones can produce decent images most of the time (but they certainly have their limitations).

In my film only days, I shot 35mm full-frame cameras with 21/35/90mm lenses. When I started shooting digital, I shot compact digital cameras with fixed lenses. I switched to micro 4/3 because I needed digital cameras with interchangeable lenses. The Olympus E-P1 and E-P3 were the first digital cameras I purchased with interchangeable lenses. I use the following lenses: 45mm f/1.8 Olympus 20mm f/1.7 Panasonic 14mm f/2.5 Panasonic I was very pleased with the micro 4/3 lenses and image quality. However, I was not happy with the Olympus digital camera bodies because they broke too many times. I was also not satisfied with the two full-frame Leica M10 digital rangefinder bodies that I bought as replacements. Both bodies were defective. I was, however, able to use the 21/35/90mm lenses that I used with my Leica M6 35mm film camera. Thus far, I have been very happy with the APS-C Fuji X-Pro2 digital mirrorless with 16/23/56mm lenses.

Very interesting. I've currently got APS-C (Fuji X-H2) and M43 (OM-1.2) in a back-to-back race to see which system I'm going to stay with. I love the compact nature of M43 and the extra reach you get from the lenses, but I'm finding that some of the lenses (generally the PRO primes) are actually heavier than their Fuji equivalents - not by much, but it all adds up. That being said, what's keeping me from making a decision yet is lenses like the 40-150 f2.8 PRO which is basically unrivalled in other sensor formats. The closest equivalent on Fuji is 50-140 f2.8 (FF equivalent 75-210mm). The reach is shorter, it's a good couple of hundred grams heavier, and despite being stabilised, it's actually less stable than the unstabilised 40-150 that relies solely on the IBIS of the OM-1. I'm ultimately not sure what I'll stick with, but it's very interesting running both of them together and exploring the differences.

I also owned a D800, and the only thing that moved me away from it was the lack of good video features. When the Z6 and Z7 came out, I thought I would just stay in the Nikon ecosystem, but the new mirrorless cameras didn't measure up to what was available in the Lumix line of M43 cameras. I hesitated moving to a smaller sensor for a couple of years because of the "common wisdom" of smaller sensors = noisy pictures, but when I finally made the switch, I found the GH5M2 was actually cleaner AND focused better than the D800. If the Z8 had been around at the time, I probably would have stayed with Nikon, but as of now, the switch has been made and I'm not feeling any need to make another switch.

Just for the record, I hate image noise BUT... I have been shooting Olympus gear since 2007, now shooting with the E-M1X (not exactly "small" but I still pack it and my lenses into some rather remote areas for my landscapes/wildlife shooting. The advancements with in-camera processors and post-processing noise reduction make much of this a mute point. Sure, full frame sensors are going to outperform on the technical level but at the end of the day, after printing hanging an image on the wall, there's insufficient difference in quality at normal viewing distances to warrant my investment in heavier and far more expensive systems. In this day and age, who honestly notices the differences aside from photographers? I grew up in the film era and recall well my dad's 4x5 macro work with a bellows setup...

@@joestrahl6980 Thanks Joe, really appreciate your constructive feedback. From now on, I will make sure not to add music to the parts where I am talking. I agree that music can be distracting, and that it works much better when added to "b-roll" (the parts where I am not talking).

@@MyIntrovertedNature subscribed to your channel. I started out with a Panasonic GX9 in 2019 as a gift from my family but it was really only during the pandemic that my photography and videography began. In October 2020 I bought a G80 on sale. I am a university lecturer so during the pandemic I was recording lectures both at home, sometimes at university, but also outdoors since I teach primarily Environmental Studies and the students appreciated lectures in a nature preserve when they were otherwise at home. In May 2021 I bought a DJI Mini 2 and in April/May 2022 I bought a G9 on sale. And of course other things along the way. You say "lack of development in the micro four thirds system" but...is it really a lack of development? The new Lumix G9ii has hybrid focus which brings Panasonic into line with Olympus/OMSystems... I think that system cameras largely have reached a plateau (like cellphones, there is little difference in 5 years looking back, sure some cellphones have bigger and brighter screens, some have better "cameras" but should we also say the same of cellphones that we should not invest in a particular brand because of "lack of development?). Cameras again: what can they do? What developments are absolutely necessary and which are bells and whistles that are nice to have but not necessary? There are companies and influencers that are constantly talking about the need for 8K video blah. blah.... that if you are serious you must buy the latest and greatest. And yet your laptop screen is 1080p or essentially 1k and most laptops have been at best that resolution for about ten years. What is the point of 8K video for almost all use cases. But there is an undercurrent on YT talking about buying used cameras with low shutter counts since 15 years ago, most digital cameras seldom had over an 8 megapixel sensor and there were fantastic images at the time that no one thought were bad....since most pictures taken today are on social media on screens on cell phones or under 17inch diameter screens, what do all the extra megapixels on our cameras useful for. It is just marketing! I follow a British photographer kzitem.info/news/bejne/k6ma4IeXp3emjKAsi=5MMKw7giNBMKOZKB who said a few videos ago about a camera "really, who actually needs a 61 megapixel sensor" oh it actually wasn't that video but close enough.... It would only be someone who needs to do incredibly deep crops into the image or who might print really really big, but even so in the latter case the larger the print on a gallery wall, the greater the distance we stand from the print to be able to see it all...which means that 20 megapixels is almost always plenty. I look over with envy at Olympus/OMSystems with built in simulated ND filters. But I look at Nikon Z9 with envy since there is no analog shutter anymore but instead a sensor protector which falls into place when you take off a lens and then flips out of the way when you mount a new lens. But I remind myself: photography is not my money making activity so I should be happier about getting better with what I have and not chase the latest where there are "developments" and with the exception of low light, I am incredibly happy with my kit. I have two YT channels and post not so often and irregularly. Perhaps you could take a look at this one: kzitem.info/rock/5KdvuU47ie3xB9VMeZ2B4g and my most recent video? The other channel has mostly my lectures that have not been uploaded internally on an internal university server. I hope that you did not find my no music while talking suggestion a problem. Clearly there can be circumstances where some very low volume music can be in the background edited in in post when you or anyone else is talking to a camera. But coming from the world of teaching and learning, it is usually best to have clear talking since some of your audience might be hearing impaired and by thinking about this with my students, this carries over to the rest of my internet presence. Later this week I will be looking at some over your other videos on your channel since work is calling me back, ha.
