Micro 4/3 - Vintage Motorsport - help me select from my gear
Hello all,

Micro 4/3 - Advise on next camera
I need some advises for gear progression:
- I believe I learned quite a bit of the type of shoots and style, and I do enjoy a rather wide variety of style with no specialisation: Street, Scenery, Portraiture, Vehicles, Nature and Wildlife. EM-5 Mk1 has served me well for the most part, except I...
