Damselflies and a New Camera

In recent weeks I've had the pleasure of testing the Olympus OM-D E-M1 camera and Olympus 60mm macro lens for Wild Planet Photography magazine. It's a mirrorless, changeable lens camera rather than a regular DSLR so is quite different (in some ways) to my usual cameras. My review will appear in a forthcoming issue of the magazine so I won't say too much here (I'll post on this blog about it in due course) but I recently had the chance to test it on my local Large Red Damselfly population.
