Be Straight And Honest.
You’re doing some research and suddenly you come across a name in Spain: Alicia Rey. “Marketing Specialist” at OMDS. The number of marketing specialists at OMDS is considerable, but most of them are “coordinators” or “managers” or something else. Ms. Rey is simply a “specialist”. I don’t know why I […]
I had already posted a few photos from the 9mm Panaleica. And as announced, I’m now only looking at the performance on an Oly. First of all, what comes out of the lens: And no, the painters in Rocksdorf didn’t have a few too many crates of beer. This is […]
It just came in the Facebook feed of OMDS. Melanie Többe is an Ambassador. freelance photographer specializing in outdoor, lifestyle and adventure. She took a photography course in Australia during her studies in 2018 and loved it so much that she decided to become a photographer. If you want to […]
There was a comment under my last Uultra Wide Angle (UWA) article that drew my attention to the fact that Panasonic cameras treat lenses differently to Olympus cameras. I should test this. This is almost impossible to do freehand in the field, because even the slightest deviations in the light […]
In May 2023 I received two Patona Platinum from Patona. For the test. I tested the batteries here against two Olys. They didn’t quite match the performance of the one-year-old Olympus batteries, but the differences were more in the single-digit percentage range – something like 4%. Since then, I have […]
As soon as there’s a few minutes of real sun and snow and blue sky, I’m outside. I packed a bunch of borrowed ultra-wide angles and tried out what they deliver outside. The candidates were the 6mm Laowa, the 7.5mm Laowa, the 9mm Nisi and the 9mm Lumix. The Lumix […]
I distribute my “e-books” as PDFs. Without copy protection. Without DRM or other stuff. I rely on the fairness of my customers. Many Franzis titles are already on the net via piracy platforms and if you write to them as an author saying that they are doing bad things, then […]
Two weeks ago on Saturday I was on stage again. The big band of the GSG Röthenbach an der Pegnitz, the HotSkills and the Räinbooch Allstars. (The drummer of the Allstars is something of a legend, having drummed for Tony Sheridan. The same guy who once recorded a record with […]
OMDS hat ja eine “Multichannel-Marketingstrategie”. Einer dieser Kanäle die “bespielt” werden, ist LinkedIn. Ja, genau, dieses “Business-Netzwerk” in dem sich Berater und Marketeers gegenseitig auf die Schulter klopfen, damit es überhaupt jemanden gibt, der sie toll findet. Wer wissen will, was in einem Unternehmen los ist, recherchiere nach den Leuten, […]
AB 1.12. 350 gibt es bei OMDS wieder bis zu 350 Euro Cashback. Diesmal keinen schwarzen Freitag, sondern “Winter Cashback”. Die genauen Bedingungen werden im Laufe des Tages per Newsletter reinkommen. Freuet euch, denn es begab sich zu der Zeit, dass alle Kameras geschätzt werden sollen… Das Bild oben? März […]
If you look around the market, it is becoming increasingly clear. Sales figures remain stable at best. Retailers tell the stories of when manufacturers used to deliver cameras to stores by the pallet, whereas now they are happy if they can sell two cameras a week. What’s going on? Have […]
Für alle, die den Newsletter längst in den Spam geschoben haben: Diese Woche war der OMDS-Kundenservice für 48 Stunden down. Eventuell dauert das Problem noch fort, weil im Newsletter davon gesprochen wird, dass sie davon ausgehen, dass sie das “Problem schnell lösen werden”. Sie sagen, dass sich um die eingehenden […]
