Taken with the little EM-10iii and the pancake kit lens 14-42mm 3.5-5.6.
Sunset at the Mediterranean Sea in April this year. Focal length 14mm and wide open, 1/8sek, ISO-800.
I find it really cool what Oly cameras can do, though IÂ´m still suspicious they also do a bit lot of covert optimization despite all efforts taken to set the camera to provide neutral images. However, sunsets there are often stunningly colorful (as this one certaily was) and maybe IÂ´m wrong and the camera did just as expected. I wonder if hereÂ´s anybody who also finds OM-D cameras silently insert the wow-factor despite being told not to.

Regardless of those musings, IÂ´m happy with the result and I do not regret to have bought this little marvel. Small, light, with a pleasing to the eye design itÂ´s a perfect walkaround camera that just fits in the jacket pocket.

Btw please click the images if you find they appear a bit unsharp in the post.
