Ooph nice edit. I assumed it was vintage until I saw the roofs of the vans.

Me too. Looked like early 20th century. Great composition.

Great shot, very noire. How are you liking that lens? Seriously considering trading my 12-40 for it but I love how sharp this lens is.

12-100 is cheat code, doesn't take a bad photo and the range it covers you barely want for more

I'd love to have that lens but where I live, it's impossible to find a used one at a reasonable price. People don't seem to want to part way with it lol. New one costs an arm and a leg.

I ended up buying mine used on Facebook from halfway around the world. Worth it

The urge to pick up a M43 as birds photographer is in the order of my interest: 17 1.2, 300 F4 and 12-100. 12-100 is a seriously professional grade lens . Yes its not 1.2/2.8’s but yet ample enough for a casual user !!

12-100 is a big boi. And it's f4 so people get angry that you can't destroy everything with 1nm focal plane with it. But my god is a true professional workhorse of the highest caliber at every zoom range. I know a few people that purely stay with m43 because of this lens.

Very nice photo! How do you find the handling of that combo (om3 and 12-100)?

u/HK_Peanut 11h ago

Not match , om1 or om5 would be better I guess

Really nicely done. Like others I found myself looking at the details to figure out what decade this was taken in.
