Lightroom Mobile Camera app is a very good camera app. In the techology previews section of the settings menu you can unsleash a hidden gem. In the video below I share the info and show it works.

I made a video about the best settings for video for Olympus. I had Olympus OM-D E-M1 MKII the example camera. But of course the other Olympus cameras are very good in video too.
The basic settings are the same. The Movie setttings in the menus are in different places. In the OM-D E-M5MKII the movie menu can found in the Special menu I. The same goes with the Pen-F.
The Pen E-PL9 has its own video menu like the E-M1 MKII. Remember to use M-IS 2 setting with the stabiliser in the Pen E-PL9. It will turn the digital stabilising off. The OM-D E-M10MKII has a very similar menu system as the Pen E-PL9.
From this video you get idea and understand the terms better. If needed read the settings from the manual. If you do not have it try find it from Olympus website.
This is a question that I hear a lot. When you start to get more into photography the lens that came with the camera might not be enough for you. I made a video about the things you should consider when buying your first lens after the kit lens. Of course this video will help you to decide even if you are more advantaged photographer.
You can get any of those lenses from my kit.com store. (disclaimer: I get a few bucks if you buy from these links.)

I had a change to test the Hasselblad X1D. Its an interesting camera, a medium format mirrorless camera with a 50 megapixel sensor. It has a price of around 9000€ the body alone. The Finnish Hasselblad dealer Fimeko borrowed me the camera.
I made a first impression video a couple a weeks ago. My Olympus OM-D E-M1 MKII (in Finnish) has a highres mode. With the highress I can make 80 megapixel images with it. It uses the pixel sift technology. Of course there are limitation with that technology.
I wanted to compare my Olympus OM-D E-M1 MKII against the Hasselbald X1D. In the video below you can watch the results. There are also links to to My first impression video on the Hasselblad X1D and a tutorial video about the Highres mode in Olympus cameras.
In this tutorial Episode Using Olympus I talk about the advantages of raw and jpg. and how to set them in your Olympus.

High Res Image feature was introduced with OM-D EM-5 MkII in February 2015.
The feature is only in three Olympus cameras, E-M1 MkII, E-M5 MkII and Pen-F. The only diffence is that in EM-5 MkII high res image has maximum of 54Mipx while the other two has maximum of 80Mpix. E-M1 MkII and Pen-F have 20Mpix sensor and the E-M5 MkII has 16Mpix sensor. That makes the difference.
In the video my example was from OM-D EM-1 MkII. The control settings for High Res. Image are can be found, as shown in the video, in the Shooting menu 2 in all three cameras.
In E-M1 MkII to turn the High res. feature option on, go to:
