Thanks mitesh, I am enjoying your images, both kinds.
Those taken with Sony or MFT gear.
I still have my MFT stuff, most of it anyway.
Although I gave a bit of gear Nikon, Sony, or Olympus to my kids.
Question for you.
Are you still using your MFT gear these days?
Nowadays I mostly shoot Sony FF or Fuji MF equipment.
That night change, provided OM comes out with a more modern MFT camera.
Then I would activate my Olympus gear more often.

Hi K-H,
I don't have Olympus gear anymore. I sold it all in 2019. I have thousands of images taken with it that I've never gone through yet, so I've been experimenting with processing those files with the DxO and Topaz software that I got during BF sales. For a number of reasons, I greatly enjoyed shooting with the Olympus gear even more than the Sony gear I have now. The 150-400 PRO is quite possibly the single most compelling lens made to date for wildlife photography. I'm right there with you on waiting to see what OM can offer in their next iteration of camera bodies.
Thanks mitesh.
Indeed the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25X IS PRO Lens would be a terrific lens to have.
I am currently using DxO PR in combination with Capture One Pro 2022.
Although I also have DxO PL5 I have not really gotten into it.
I need to explore that a bit more. Any pointers for me? TIA.
nothing special or mind blowing but I found an Olympus Pen E-P2 at The Camera Store donation bin , picked it up, bought some batteries from Amazon and a 7artisan 18mm f/6.3 and gave it a try.

DXO PL offers a ton of benefits for crop sensors and MFT, especially those with high iso.
I usually set the Deep Prime NR to something Like 10 or 20.
The new control line is a great addition in DXO PL5. There’s a fantastic set of videos by PhotoJoseph for DXO PL on YouTube. Additionally the DXO Labs channel also has excellent videos.
The control points and control line are great for tackling specific colours or tonalities.
The colour editor of DXO PL is another feature that can help tweak the hues.
An Easter egg of sorts is the Colour Rendering section, where you can try out some of the other tonalities like Neutral, for low light shots.
In case you need to fix the perspective, DXO ViewPoint is great.
I don’t quite like the highlight recovery tool in DXO PL.
One thing to watch out for is that PL applies some default corrections and adjustments like the Smart Lighting. I usually play around with those default adjustments to check whether they are helping or hurting based on the image.
