My typical setup is my EM 1 mkiii with the 100-400, plus the 12-100. I have a sling pack that allows me to switch between lenses on the fly, making it possible to capture birds and landscapes on hikes. Great video!
Fantastic location you're living at. High diversity of animals, lovin it. For my photo walks (OM1 & 150-400/4.5) I'm just using 1/2500 sec and auto ISO as a default to be able for BIF. Then lowering down the S for perched birds. The lever is a great simple tool, I'm using it for the same switch as you :-) Greetings from Switzerland!
Best way to start the day. Looks like an awesome location Fortunate to live just a few minutes from state park and do the same everyday. Carry OM-1 w/telephoto and Pen with a small prime. Great fun
Love your morning walks! New subscriber here, from Canada’s Vancouver Island. Your patches of Gorse are just like our invasive Scotch Broom here… we have tons of it! I’m inspired now to see if I can catch any birds perching among the pretty yellow; it’s out in bloom right now too! Thanks for sharing!
Thxs for using this combination. I have m1 mark😢 III with 100-400 mm and I’m very satisfied with the combination. I see you are more succesfull in lower shutterspeed. Mostly I use minimal 1/800 with iso around 1000. Nice video
Thanks Espen for the shot of the Blue Tit, they have always been a favourite of mine (my dad made nesting box's for our garden in London). I have an E-M10 Mk IV with M.Zuiko ED40-150mm f4.0-5.6 lens. I'm not getting the best out of it . Not for want of trying. btw thanks for the tip on binos I'm looking at getting some. Davo , Western Australia.
I have this combo. It is a great lens for someone (like me) who is a more casual wildlife shooter and can't justify the 150-400 f4.5. But I can't get shutter speeds as low as you are using and still get sharp images! By the way, do you use both IS systems - camera and lens - or just the camera's?
Used ibis only when I shot this lens. Imho it's better, smoother, quicker to engage and can be controlled via custom menus immediately when switching those, unlike having to press the button on the lens in addition. @@donaldmiller7098

Nice walk and nice photos, Espen. Greetings from Euskal Herria / Basque Country.
Thanks for the "morning walks" series. The videos are terrific. Wonderful photos. And your video clips of the sheep were hilarious. Nice addition :). I'm not sure what the yellow flowers are that seem to be all around. They are terrific. Like your method for tracking batteries.
I like the way Espen makes videos! Unfortunately, I watch them most of the time on my laptop under a pseudonym. It is a great series, but I liked the Costa Rica series the best
Again, great video! I am enjoying this series, so keep them coming! One question I have, if you're willing, is what your feelings are about putting filters, especially UV filters that camera shops always recommend for protecting your lens glass, onto your lenses. Perhaps a video discussing this would be of interest to folks. Thanks again for your videos, and the OM Systems Wildlife Photography course you did, which I found extremely helpful. I recently got the OM-1 mkii, so I'm also curious as to what, if any, changes you made for that camera, from your original OM-1 setting.
Thanks a lot Peter! I don’t tend to use the UV filter, maybe if I was doing something where to potential for scratches were higher. I always use my lens hood which tends to protect my lens from banging into things. Not too many changes for the OM-1ii but I will update the course when I can find some time. Cheers 🙂
Hi Espen. I always look forward to your videos and Scottish phrases like. That battery needs charged. How about this combo. OM 5 or even EM5 mk3 with the 75-300. With decent light it is a very capable lens.
enjoying the series, thanks! I recently moved to this setup and very happy with portability and quality one question around the peak design / lens attachement for 100 - 400, noticed you attach 2 anchors to lens foot and there is an extra "plate" that doesn't come with lens and the anchor point that came with peak design is also smaller in my case. tldr: what are the anchors attached to? thanks
Hello Alex -what you're looking for is a Peak Design 'standard plate' . It can be screwed-in to a normal threaded hole for a tripod's screw, and the peak design anchors can be threaded through two of its holes. Hope that helps. David
Hi espen I use this combo set up but find a lot of my images are soft any recommendations I recently came over from Nikon D500 150-600 sigma sports cheers
hi, thanks for your viswos. a question: the om system om1 body and olympus 100-400 les, works with both stabilizations or only with sensor stabilizator?
Unfortunately the 100-400 doesn't sync with the body so the stabilisation isn't as good as with some of the other lenses. Mostly I find it to be fine, but when filming at 400mm there's definitely more shake.
@@EspenHelland thanks for the reply. I listened someone tell that is better use only lenses stabilization, other one says only camera stabilizer. They confusing me 😀
Love that bumblebee shot!
Thank you 🙂
Nice Video. I would like to see more of this videos!
Thank you 🙂
Adore your morning walks, so incredibly inspiring. Thanks Espen!
👃
Thank you so much Roland 🙂
Everything in your videos is absolutely wonderful. What I enjoy the most though, is seeing your enthusiasm for what you do.
Thank you so much 🙂🙏

Another great video very enjoyable i am planning to get this lens for my OMD EM1 MK3
Thanks a lot 🙂
Thx always a good watch

Awesome!!! Very nice video Espen I like to do these photo walks !
Thanks a lot Mattia 🙂

New subscriber here, from Canada’s Vancouver Island.
Your patches of Gorse are just like our invasive Scotch Broom here… we have tons of it!
I’m inspired now to see if I can catch any birds perching among the pretty yellow; it’s out in bloom right now too!
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you 🙂 yes they are similar, we have that here as well. Love the colours it adds. Good luck!
Thxs for using this combination. I have m1 mark😢 III with 100-400 mm and I’m very satisfied with the combination. I see you are more succesfull in lower shutterspeed. Mostly I use minimal 1/800 with iso around 1000. Nice video
Thank you 🙂 yeah you can easily go much lower than that, just take a burst of images and see how low you can go.
Thanks Espen for the shot of the Blue Tit, they have always been a favourite of mine (my dad made nesting box's for our garden in London). I have an E-M10 Mk IV with M.Zuiko ED40-150mm f4.0-5.6 lens.

I only use ibis. It's 5 instead of 3 the lens limit is to.
@@bamsemh1 thank you.
Used ibis only when I shot this lens. Imho it's better, smoother, quicker to engage and can be controlled via custom menus immediately when switching those, unlike having to press the button on the lens in addition. @@donaldmiller7098

They are Gorse, a common UK plant which flowers early in the year and brings a much needed colour to the landscape.
Thanks a lot 🙂 they are gorse, quite a spiky shrub
Great video, what backpack are you using in this video? thanks,
I like the way Espen makes videos! Unfortunately, I watch them most of the time on my laptop under a pseudonym. It is a great series, but I liked the Costa Rica series the best
I’d like to make more like those 🙂 thank you
One day you might catch an angler out on the loch. Great stuff.
Nice video
Don't forget the sheep nuts next time. Great video again
😅👍

Hello Espen
Can you describe and identify the accessories you use to carry the 100-400 lens?( strap and other parts)
Thank you
Hi, I use Peak design strap
@@EspenHelland thank you
Nice morning and place to observ and photograph wildlife ! Is there any adder in this place ? It looks like a great place for that great specie …
Maybe on the other side of the hill which is south facing. Need to have a look :)
enjoying the series, thanks!

Great video. Loved the combo. Audio is coming through very muddy though
Thanks a lot 🙂 just got the DJI mic 2, but not that happy with them. Will try a lavier attached next time I think
I number my battery's so I know which is next.
👍
As always great content. This is the same path we walked?
Thanks Felix! Yes it is
3:38 Looks like a beaver had a go at that log
Good observation! There are quite a few around here 😁
the blue-tit picture in the flowers was stunning!
Thanks a lot 🙂
can i ask which sling you are using here please
Peak design
@@EspenHelland Thank you found it on another of your videos ordered and using thanks for the recommendation
I didn’t get the brand of binoculars that you are using, and it wasn’t in your list of gear
It says Olympus on their body so I think there's a certain level of possibility that they may be made by Swarovski
They are Olympus 8x25 WP II
@ 8:10 I do the same thing all the time.
😅👍
Love your videos but, the Audio on this one is very difficult to hear clearly.
Will try to sort it for the future 👍
