Never Stop the J OUT WITH THE NEW OLYMPUS TRAVEL CAMERA Recently I spend an epic weekend with some of Aussie’s top influencers, photographers and the fabulous team from Olympus Australia New Zealand in Queenstown with a special new travel camera the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III. Picture an adventurous long weekend in Queenstown with an awesome bunch of new friends having a blast, eating out, staying in luxury and heading out on some epic tours and you would be on one of the best adventures of your life. We were warmly welcomed by Kristie of Olympus and her team to The Rees Hotel & Luxury Apartments on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, a stunning place to relax and underwind. Excitedly tearing into the packaging of my new travel camera, I met the crew and the
rest of the inspiring people on this trip and we headed out for some adventure on the water. The first thing I noticed about the camera was its lightweight feel, not like my usual heavy camera gear, so I was excited to see what I could shoot with it over the next few days. If you are like me, the less gear you have to carry the better! First stop a private boat tour and dinner on the beautiful Lake Wakatipu, meet and mingle with my new friends and the chance to shoot some pics, I was also particularly excited about the video capacity of this camera which gave newbies to video like me the ability to get some good footage with the 5-axis image stabilisation for reducing camera shake and 4k recording ability. There were some really successful photographers and influencers on this boat, so a lot was learned over these next few days.
