Should anyone be interested, I acquired an Olympus PEN-F and two lenses on Tuesday. I set about a test shoot yesterday and the write up is on my blog https://blythestorm.com/2017/08/16/olympus-pen-f-first-impressions/

I would love one if it was APS-C or FF. I find 4/3 format just too small for my quality needs.

I'm selling images from the Nikon P900 and the sensor on that is way smaller. I was expecting to be disappointed by the 4/3rd sensor results but I was extremely happy to be very pleasantly surprised. As it says in my blog, we did used to print A3 brochures from a 2.6x crop sensor with 1.5MP on board.

My initial enthusiasm has been tempered by use in the field. It's nice, its light, it does a fairly good job, BUT, its not full frame and the 4:3 ratio is odd.

I agree but it is a very much lighter option it is like always a question of balance. I want the IQ and as such am stuck on APS-C Fuji and Nikon FF with D500 APS-C for long range wildlife.

I followed your link in post one and read it with great interest. Seems we are completely at odds on weight... I have even been looking at a full plate camera as a path for the future!!!  https://intrepidcamera.co.uk/products/intrepid-8x10-camera Following from investigating this... https://intrepidcamera.co.uk/products/intrepid-camera The second is probably more sensible, maybe next year? Anyway, what prompted me to put my finger to the keyboard was the account of your visit to Skye. I greatly enjoyed your write up, particularly the early morning visit to The Quiraing. When I was there in July last year, the 'cars parked' extended for at least a mile along the road. I just drove past, I hate crowds, quite apart from the difficulty of getting photographs without tourists in their bright touristy garb. This was my effort... Not a bright yellow anorak in sight! Without wind and with the right light, Loch Leathan might provide some nice reflections of The Quiraing. D3 with the Nikkor 105mm f2.5 pre Ai lens at f4, ISO200  Jan, could I suggest you place a link in your signature to your blog? I'm sure it would be of interest to others.

I mean...I couldn't see any yellow anoraks either, despite scouring the horizon in minute detail. The reason I am so sceptical is.... my shot of the glacier at the base of the Grossglockner looked unspoilt....and yet.........
