Micro Four Thirds Honest Thoughts: Travel, Being Lightweight, Wide Lens, Lumix G100, GF9 - Q&A

Do you really need the latest high-spec camera to capture stunning landscape and travel photos? In this Q&A, I addressed some thoughts surrounding Micro Four Thirds and explained why I continue to rely on this system for my personal photography needs in places like Iceland, Denmark, and even my home country Indonesia.

We dive deep into the reality of using older gear like the Panasonic Lumix G85 and GF9 alongside newer options like the G100. I also discuss the practical trade-offs between super-zoom lenses like the Olympus 12-200mm versus the Panasonic 14-140mm, specifically regarding airline carry-on weight limits. This video covers essential photography philosophy, including dealing with gear negativity, the art of wide-angle storytelling versus telephoto compression, and how to get the most out of "primitive" camera setups.
