Overnight in Eugene

Photography

Ben's ride back down to Eugene decided to wait a bit longer before returning, so we took him down last night.  

I'm still getting used to the OM-3, but continue to appreciate the in-camera controls on OM System cameras. The in-camera color control is a little more detailed than I can get on a Fujifilm system. Mainly, though, I like the versatility/size trade-off. It's nice walking around with a relatively compact 40mm (equiv) lens and having a decent zoom in my sling if I want it. "Pro" and "chunky" on an M43 lens runs pretty close to "inexpensive kit lens" territory on a Fujifilm camera. On the other hand, Fujifilm jpegs feel like they're easier to work with in terms of exposure latitude. It's way easier to pull a poorly exposed Fuji jpeg back than one out of any of my M43 bodies.
