My world of photography is primarily travel, photojournalism, and wildlife, not necessarily in that order, it’s all based on the assignment! The OM/OM-D equipment couldn’t have been designed any more perfectly for my work: the incredible form-factor allows me to have my camera in hand when those rapidly changing moments present themselves. And it must provide absolutely top-notch quality results, nothing less will work for the demands of my business.
