wow Robin, I learn so much watching your channel. Everyday is a joy watching you.I have rediscovered my artistic life after 60. Thank you so much again. I seem to thanking you every time i watch you. I am so happy to have a teacher like you even if you are on another side of the world.
I’m embarrassed Robin. I can’t believe how much I didn’t know about a camera I’ve owned for 3 years. I started to read the manual way back but kind of forgot about it once the basics were understood. Some great tips there & yes please do some stuff on B&W photography 🙏
Robin, thanks so much for opening the keys to how the Olympus world works. I love my OMD Mk2, but only knew what I didn't know. I will get so much more fun out of it. JimP
I am preferring "as original as possible picture" 👌 using natural setting ... Like this article , good info on the color adjust 😊 never use it before ...
So happy I found this. Been following your work for years now and didn’t notice this one. I love playing with colours in my photos, I had no idea A was Amber and G green. I thought it was some type of Alpha Gamma thing 😂 Also didn’t know about setting colour intensity. Great stuff!

Many thanks from France Robin. I own an EMD-1 Mk3 but I had used it as a Kodak Polaroid until I watch yours videos.
So informative and easy to understand, your ability to share what is important is just amazing. Thank you. Also your video production is far better than most in all aspects.
Von dir kommen viele kleine Tipps und Ratschläge für OM Kameras, ich verstehe leider deine Sprache nicht kann aber alles sehr gut nachvollziehen, danke dir. Endlich hat OM das Menü aufgeräumt. Farbänderungen mache ich erst in Ps da ich mit RAW Adobe RGB Fotos mache.
Robin, you go where I have feared to tread. :) ... And to places unknown or under-used. You are unrivaled as an Olympus guide. It is perhaps my misunderstood notion that using color creator limits the image to .jpg? Please comment on that. I believe using art filters likewise limit image to .jpg. Nothing at all wrong with that if you know what it is you are getting out beforehand. The auto WB Amber and Green micro adjust tips are awesome. All in all for us color lovers this latest episode is Olympian! Black and white tips would be very welcome.
Thank you Robin! I have packed my Pen F so many times in preparation to sell it. Now I am excited to unpack these color features and looking forward to loving the camera.
Thank You Mr Robin..I am using GH5 and G9..Honestly I lot many learn from you. Featured on OMD system to be same in my Lumix Camera. I am always miss your video...always success Mr Robin..thank you
Robin, I totally enjoy your videos. I am going on safari in Tanzania in July. Can you share some useful tips about wildlife photography from a safari vehicle?
Or .. you can shoot raw and bother with the colors later. I once took a few shots indoors and found the auto WB was getting the colors too warm, you can just in camera select the indoor WB (or incandescent light), then preview the previous shots, edit, set WB .. fixed.
I have a EM1 Mk II and I found the Amber & Green on the super control panel helped me a lot with my white balance 💯👍🏻 thanks Robin keep this tutorials coming ✅✅✅
I had forgotten about these features! Thanks for the reminder! It's super useful in competitions like photomarathons where you can't post edit and have to only deliver jog and 1 shot per theme. Have you ever done a marathon? Saw Tomas Heathon did in UK some years ago. Poor lad. Was a struggle but he had fun. It's really healthy to participate ;whether you are a pro or amatour. Thanks for another great video and Happy New Western New Year!
Yes please......B&W tips would be great! 👍👍 Also, with Nikon you can: “Custom Picture Controls can be edited and registered in the camera. You can change their names, delete them, and copy them to a memory card. You can also freely share files between cameras or photographers using a memory card, as well as importing custom Picture Controls created with Picture Control Utility and registering them in your camera. Moreover, you can import custom Picture Controls created in your camera to a computer via Picture Control Utility, then apply them to images using ViewNX 2 or Capture NX 2 software (and with newer cameras, launched after June 2014, using Picture Control Utility 2, which launches from within ViewNX-i or Capture NX-D).” Is it possible to do the same on an OMD EM1M2?
Hey Robin - Thanks for your fantastic content and your recent efforts to increase the pace of content creation. Your channel is my first ever UA-cam subscription! I’m a long time lurker, first time commenter, and also a long time Olympus user (from the original OM-D film days) and your explanations of the tips and tricks and menus intricacies have been illuminating. I am obsessed with underwater macro photography and dabble in terrestrial macro and wildlife photography, for which M4/3 presents some significant advantages. It would be great if you could add such topics to your channel. Keep up the great work!
Hey Robin! Thank you so much for your videos. You are my primary source of information regarding Olympus EM10 mark iv. I'm a newbie to mirrorless and your videos are more than helpful. You just simplified what's in the manual. Thank you.
Thanks Robin for the video. I switched from Sony to Olympus but I always miss the dense color from Sony (I like many other Olympus things of course). I use PenF which comes with the art mode dial, but I never spend much time playing with the color wheel as I take kids photos and I don’t have time to do the settings before my kid stop smiling. Think I should not complain about this and spend time researching the color creator settings. And yes the AWB with fine tuning is good. I never noticed or knew what the A & G mean!
The AWB is one of the main pain point of Olympus systems. It’s been improved over the years. But last year I happen to see the picture result form my friend who used Sony. I should do more homework and not just rely on AWB.
Thank you Robin. I've been an OLY shooter for a very long time. But I have never worked with the color creator. Thanks for the demonstration and explanation.
So easy to listen and watch you than trawling through the manual that looks like War and Peace when you open it up, had to do a Little investigation to find the art filters on the EM1X but that was no problem. thanks Robin.
Thanks Robin! You know, when it was golden hour on the red rocks in Arizona, the lighting was really confusing the white balance and so I set it to shade but I will have to try adjusting the amber slider next time. Something I've been doing a lot of in camera is the highlight and shadow controls and it's come very natural to me to adjust as I look at the subject. I've gone as far as adjusting contrast and color saturation slightly where I'm really pleased with the in camera jpeg that I don't even edit the image in post. I love this about my E-M10 II.
I enjoy watching your videos..and would love to see how you produce B&W images. Although everything is in the manual, I find it frustrating reading it as it is obviously written by engineers. If I want to find anything out, the manual has the habit of directing me to separate pages rather than linking all relevant points together. Your videos does a much better job. Many thanks.
Great video. Very informative stuff well delivered. Love these TIPS videos. Cheers 👍🏻. B&W video would be great as well as perhaps a using “Workspace” video. Keep up the good work
Thanks, glad you found the video useful. I will surely make a black and white video soon. Workspace, a good suggestion, but there are a lot of other alternatives out there that others use.
I'm intrigued with trying some of these tips out, but dont think I can do all with my EM 5 original. Definitely love shooting black and white and enjoy using the presets in camera. Please show me more👍🏻
Robin, I may have missed this but your tips only seem to be relevant to jpeg shooting. It is interesting to see Olympus Workspace in action. I appreciate, not everybody uses Lightroom but there you can do all those colour adjustments (white balance, saturation, luminance, hue).
Robin..you used to have a video posted I titled "Robin in the City" I may have that wrong. It was a short video of your little Robin character filmed in different places. I can't find that among your videos. I really liked it. Can you help me find it? Thanks
Yes to bw photography. I use the grainy art filter with a 35mm c-mount manual lens on my em5ii and love the setup, but end up using the additional RAW file in Lightroom instead. Temptation wins...
I’m happy to have found your channel. Thank you for these tips Robin, was about to upgrade to an expensive camera, but i changed my mind knowing i have a lot more features that expensive cameras don’t have.
Very useful tips like always, thanks! I learned a lot from your videos to better understand my new E-5 Mark III and the wired and unergonomic Olympus interface (coming from Panasonic LUMIX, for me the best interface ever!).
These are really cool things that you shared, I love learning all this new stuff about my OMD camera. Coming from Canon I doubt they had this type of control. Olympus is amazing... Definitely do a B&W tutorial as well. Another idea would be to do an end to end workflow of taking a picture, then using OI share and edit it, send it up to Facebook in the minimum amount of steps possible.
Very good and useful video. I have the Pen-F and would like to see also videos about this camera even though the Pen Series are simular to the OM-D System. Please also videos about monochrome photography. Thank you.
Hi Robin, Any tips and insight into the use of the OM-D range of cameras and lenses are most helpful always look forward to your videos etc, just keep posting, please.
Thank you very much for you videos, and yes I would like to know your tips about B&W photography. Keep up the good work. Your fan number one from Portugal, Europe. ;)
Thank you Robin, you have just showed me what I didn't know. A British saying is: 'Ignorance is bliss', but you have proved how wrong this saying is, many times over.
Ja Herman, I also found that Workspace Color Adjust will work with a JPG from my EM5-II, but not with the ORF file. Which works fine for me - I get whatever needs doing on the ORF; save and then re-open the JPG and finish any color adjustments - glad to have this available! Robin, your Blog and videos - Awesome! Can't thank you enough!
Yeah I want those B&W tips!
Awesome!
yes, Black and white tips please (portraits in particular)
Alright! Will do one soon.
Rob Trek has also done a few on B&W setting for Olympus
wow Robin, I learn so much watching your channel. Everyday is a joy watching you.I have rediscovered my artistic life after 60. Thank you so much again. I seem to thanking you every time i watch you. I am so happy to have a teacher like you even if you are on another side of the world.

There is no need to feel embarrassed! We all learn and grow together. Hence I am making these videos.
The ✖ por is
Dont be embarassed.. its too complicated to know everything. We must REST !!!!!!
its the first time im watching your vids, 10 seconds into the video and my first thought was, i wanna hug you, you look seem so kind and heartwarming
Great video Robin. Please keep posting OM tips.
These tips videos are fantastic, you've helped me unlock features in my E-M1 ii that I didn't even know existed.
Thanks, glad I could help.
One of the most informative EM1 Mark II possibilities I've seen so far.
Hello Robin
I bought a OM D E10 M IV 2months ago and thanks to you I discover how to use it with the best settings
Congratulations
Michel from FRANCE
I also have never used any of these tips though I have been shooting Olympus for over 10 years! Thanks.
Robin, thanks so much for opening the keys to how the Olympus world works. I love my OMD Mk2, but only knew what I didn't know. I will get so much more fun out of it. JimP
I am preferring "as original as possible picture" 👌 using natural setting ...
Like this article , good info on the color adjust 😊 never use it before ...
yes, Black and white tips please for Street Photography
Robin, Your instructions are so easy to understand !
Yes, please also a video for the OMD-EM 5 Mark III via black and white photos
Great info Robin! Thank you as usual. And yes to the black and white.
So happy I found this. Been following your work for years now and didn’t notice this one. I love playing with colours in my photos, I had no idea A was Amber and G green. I thought it was some type of Alpha Gamma thing 😂
Also didn’t know about setting colour intensity.

I personally like the colour creator. I try to use it lightly and not get too much a saturated look. Looking forward to your B&W tips. Thanks
Thank you Robin for showing us all the hidden gems
Thank you Robin. Very useful tips and a very high energy here. Fun to watch.
Robin, you go where I have feared to tread. :) ... And to places unknown or under-used. You are unrivaled as an Olympus guide.

Great tips Robin . Your style and simplicity attracts my attention. Please advise how one can achieve fujifilm ACROS quality black and white images.
Thank you Robin! I have packed my Pen F so many times in preparation to sell it. Now I am excited to unpack these color features and looking forward to loving the camera.
I am new to Olympus so thank you very much for the information
This is great info 👍🏻
Thanks!!
This is incredibly useful. I was simply not aware that we could fine-tune AWB in this way. I thought Fuji offered the option to create 'recipes'.
excellent video Robin *THUMBSUP*
Thank You Mr Robin..I am using GH5 and G9..Honestly I lot many learn from you. Featured on OMD system to be same in my Lumix Camera. I am always miss your video...always success Mr Robin..thank you
Robin, I totally enjoy your videos. I am going on safari in Tanzania in July. Can you share some useful tips about wildlife photography from a safari vehicle?
Yes please back and white photo tips would be greatly appreciated.. have a great day
Gosh. I didn’t know any of this. Fascinating.
Or .. you can shoot raw and bother with the colors later. I once took a few shots indoors and found the auto WB was getting the colors too warm, you can just in camera select the indoor WB (or incandescent light), then preview the previous shots, edit, set WB .. fixed.
Bonsoir Robin, merci pour ce tuto. Même sans comprendre l’Anglais Grâce a tes images et réglages cela m’a beaucoup aidé 👍
I have a EM1 Mk II and I found the Amber & Green on the super control panel helped me a lot with my white balance 💯👍🏻 thanks Robin keep this tutorials coming ✅✅✅
Great tips, thanks Robin. Will try tip number 5, as I have EM5 3. Look forward to your meet up with Rob Trek soon. Thanks for all your tips.
Thanks for the kind words!
I had forgotten about these features! Thanks for the reminder! It's super useful in competitions like photomarathons where you can't post edit and have to only deliver jog and 1 shot per theme.
Have you ever done a marathon?
Saw Tomas Heathon did in UK some years ago. Poor lad. Was a struggle but he had fun.
It's really healthy to participate ;whether you are a pro or amatour.
Thanks for another great video and Happy New Western New Year!
another Great video tips again Robin, I agree with the comments below - Tips for Black & White ,...
Thanks, black and white tips will be one of the coming videos.
Yes please......B&W tips would be great! 👍👍
Also, with Nikon you can: “Custom Picture Controls can be edited and registered in the camera. You can change their names, delete them, and copy them to a memory card.

Noted! Will make one soon.

Hi Robin, could you share with us tips of making better black and white photos ?

Robin Wong in your view is Workspace a viable usable option against the others? Your views are appreciated. Thanks

I'm intrigued with trying some of these tips out, but dont think I can do all with my EM 5 original. Definitely love shooting black and white and enjoy using the presets in camera. Please show me more👍🏻
Yeah, most of the settings are not available in the E-M5 unfortunately! We are already in Mark III territory!
@@robinwong Oh well....one day😊
Hi.Fan from Thailand
5 things I didn't know! Thanks.
Very useful, thank you. One of the colour problems I have is with browns.
Thank you.
brill! Thank you!

Nice example and post! Thank you!
Робин, ты очень обаятельный человек! И ты всегда улыбаешься! Это очень хорошо! Хотелось бы, чтобы ты протестировал оптику leica на,, olympus,,....

Always was wondering what those were for I kind of new I'll try them out
While the colour adjust in Olympus Workspace does not work for older ORF files it does work for JPGS from older camera models.
