OM1 cats and dogs mode

First day out with the OM1. Thought I see how it goes in the pouring rain. This was at the end of our day when it really bucketed down and Momo had decided it was time to go home for his warm bath. He is clearly saying ‘Hey dad, I have had enough’ here.

The new camera has a cats and dogs mode. It is clearly made to be used when it’s raining ‘cats and dogs’. I didn’t use the fancy cat and dog focus mode here though. I just manually focused like I always do. Auto focus, well that’s a whole menu system, sets of buttons and knobs I don’t actually use very often at all. Perhaps one day I’ll go and photograph some big cats again and use it. It is on my bucket list, a tour in Africa just to photograph cats. I have some more photos from the new camera to show you, but they can wait for the next post. Suffice to say it’s unlikely I’ll pick up the one it replaced.
