That's another which it would be good to see in test. I came across what looks to be an interesting comparison here: Imatest Macro Results (With A...

Does anybody know if its possible to use the stackshot with the olympus OM-D E-M1 ... I don't have any experience with the OM-D E-M1 on StackShot but the E-M1 Instruction Manual on p. 133 calls for a RM-UC1 Remote cable which is included in Cognisys's list of adapter cables . When you click on the ...
