Accidentally stumbled upon your video, as I'm researching this lens... I don't know why, but I smiled the entire video. You have some incredible positive strong light coming out of you.
I can't believe you didn't mention how small and light it is while at the same time well built. Another think I love about the 60mm is that it looks good on every m43 camera I have. Maybe a little out of place on my em1x. Another great thing about it is how affordable it is and how fast and precisely it focuses. It comes close to being my favourite lens. Really great video.
Great video! Thank you! Just ordered the OM5 and researching macro lens. Is this the one that is advertised now on the website, as it states it is weatherproof? 😊 I wonder if it would be good to photograph aquarium fish?
You are so lovely, Emillie. Love your presentations. Your macro images are fantastic. Could you tell me again what diffuser you use please. Merry Christmas!
I still use the Olympus Zuiko ED 50mm f/2 Macro lens with m4/3 adapter MMF-3 and waiting for the new M.Zuiko Apo 90mm f/3.5 lens. Thank you for your nice videos, Emilie!
Fantástico yo tengo este lente pero no he podido usarlo debidamente ..!!!que me recomiendas tú ? Decirte que tus macros son fabulosos y es lo que me gusta ..!!gracias ..!!!
Tx for a nice intro to the lens. If I may say however, it is my understanding that "magnification" does not change with sensor size and there is no such thing as magnification equivalency. Field of view does, but magnification remain constant, I.e. the subject that is projected onto the sensor does not increase in size on the smaller sensor compared to FF, it is the same size, but will appear larger relative to the image frame. Semantic perhaps, but important distinction if for example you were to calculate the size of the subject based on the image captured at 1:1 ratio. What is nice though, the subject will have 4x the resolution on a 20Mpix M43 sensor compared to a 120mm f5.6 1:1 Macro lens on 20Mpix FF and what makes M43 such a great macro tool !!
I made my first steps into macro photography using the Olympus MCON-P02 macro converter. It is more like close up photography than macro photography but still it is a lot of fun (and only €69). I hope the new macro lens will come because your favorite macro lens will hopefully be available for a bargain by then! 😁
Awesome Emilie! I have the 30mm macro, which is great. However, the 60mm or to be released 90mm will replace the 30mm. I want to get more details in my photo.
This lens is good for portrait with nice blury background ? Intéressant. Have you some portraits to show us ? Thank you. A french guy from Martinique 🙂
Jimmy a une bonne vidéo avec des examples pour les portraits avec le 60mm. Je n'ai pas demandé la permission pour partager mes examples de portraits sur le web mais je vais essayer de faire une vidéo plus tard avec de nouveaux portraits: ua-cam.com/video/G9sLTcFOHws/v-deo.html
Hi Emilie, thank you for your videos which are always very informative. For me too, the 60 Macro Zuiko is a phenomenal lens. Mounted on my OM-1 it is the ideal travel companion for filming the "little world" but it is also ideal for normal shooting. I am also looking forward to the 90 macro f / 3.5 but ... I think I will not abandon this little gem anyway! Forgive me for my not perfect translation! Until next time. Aldo (from Italy).
My favourite Portrait lens is the same as my favourite macro lens - The Sony 90mm f2.8 lens (Also my Laowa 65mm macro is lighter and goes to 2x magnification and comes in Second place for macro)
Yes start without the flash. If you have a willing subject that doesn’t move too much and is in the shade so you don’t have harsh light you will have plenty of fun!

Thank you so much for your kind words!
Fantastic images!!! I have this lens and love it.
@@PatriceSanders-j1h Thank you

It really is a great lens.
Just bought this lens for my new OM5. Thanks for the video
Enjoy it! It is an amazing lens!
Great video Emilie. Great lens
Thank you Richard!

You are so lovely, Emillie. Love your presentations. Your macro images are fantastic. Could you tell me again what diffuser you use please. Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much. I use the AK diffuser. Here is a video I made about it: ua-cam.com/video/eBobYhRfjZk/v-deo.html
Hi Emile, I too use the M.Zuiko 60mm macro lens. I use it with my EM 1 mk2 and get super sharp photos. I am also eagerly awaiting the 90mm macro lens.
Somehow feels like "nerd mode on" when attaching this lens to a body like the OM-1. But the results are impressing. Gorgeous pictures Emilie!
Thank you so much!

Uso ese macro con mi OMD EM1, fotos macros fantásticas, lo mejor que hay en el mercado es una joya

I can’t recall your mentioning the absence of a lens hood with lens. I assume that you have added a lens hood?
I usually don’t use a lens hood on my macro as I get super close to my subject and also I use a diffuser
60mm its now my favourite lens.

Émilie did not say magnification changes. She talked about the ratio of the size of a given object to a MFT sensor size vs a FF sensor size.
I also use the Nikkor 60mm f2.8, but find the zuiko on the new OM1 is so much better. Looking forward to the 90mm f3.5. Thanks for the information.

Yes, MCON-P02 with 45 1.8 is amazing. Light and cheap.
Awesome Emilie! I have the 30mm macro, which is great. However, the 60mm or to be released
90mm will replace the 30mm. I want to get more details in my photo.
Great video!You should do more tutorial videos.
The. 60mm and the mighty 75mm 1.8 are two of the best lenses ever made!
Yes!

Thank you so much Aldo. I agree with you, the 60mm macro will always have a place in my bag.
Have you tried the new 90 F 3.5 two times magnification?
I have! it is insane!
Hi Emilie, I love my 60 mm macro too. But I get confused with the toggle switch for the 1 to 1 switch. Have you done a more educational video on that?
I touch on it a little on this video: ua-cam.com/video/I4oyeTS1-Q4/v-deo.html
I will try to make a better on to explain.
Hi Emilie, Just watched the u tube link you copied in for me, awesome! Thanks for all you do for OM! One of the best ambassadors!🥳
@@debsunderman6567 Thank you for your kind words. It means a lot.
My favourite Portrait lens is the same as my favourite macro lens - The Sony 90mm f2.8 lens (Also my Laowa 65mm macro is lighter and goes to 2x magnification and comes in Second place for macro)
A very good idea could be to make a video about 60 mm macro as a portrait lens. :)
Totally. Jimmy actually made one: ua-cam.com/video/G9sLTcFOHws/v-deo.html
@@EmilieT I know this video. Only there they talk more than take pictures. :) P.S.: Merci for the answer.
Do you use a tripod?
Rarely. For insects no and for refraction yes. But most of the time when outdoors I do not use a tripod.
THE OLYMPUS IBIS IS BEST...so no tripod is necessary 😂😂
I have just bought the 30mm macro, my first attempts at macro photography, is it worth trying without flash and diffuser to get detail in insects etc?
Yes start without the flash. If you have a willing subject that doesn’t move too much and is in the shade so you don’t have harsh light you will have plenty of fun!
You live in NH? I thought you lived some place in Europe. LOL
dommage que ce soit en anglais !
Si j'ai plus de temps je vais essayer de doubler mes vidéos en français mais malheureusement pas avant cet été.
@@EmilieT ce serait super merci!
