Accessories for Micro Four Thirds Photographers

Getting the most out of your camera and lens often means having to go beyond the limitations of these basic, though very essential components. Regardless of your choice of camera systems, be it DSLR or mirrorless, there are many accessories designed to up your game as a photographer, and maybe even enhance your photographic experience.
If your camera system of choice is a Micro Four Thirds (MFT) from Panasonic or Olympus. We offer a plethora of add-ons designed to elevate your technical, creative, and aesthetic abilities.

Electronic and Optical Viewfinders (EVFs and OVFs)

LCDs have their place in the greater scheme of things but, when it comes to taking pictures under bright sunny skies or with longer focal length lenses, you can’t beat an eye-level viewfinder. The problem is that not all MFT cameras feature built-in viewfinders. The good news is that there are optional electronic and optical viewfinders available for select Olympus PEN cameras that enable you to hold your camera and lens DSLR-style for steadier 3-point contact when shooting stills and video.
Another option is to compose your stills and video using an optical viewfinder that matches the field of view of your favorite lens (or lenses). Optical viewfinders are available in focal lengths ranging from 10mm through 75mm. Simply pre-focus your manual lenses or allow your camera’s AF system to do its thing and concentrate on taking pictures. If you’re like me, you might find you enjoy shooting through a clear-as-glass (literally), data- and icon-free viewing field.
