That gets you in the orbit of being able to work there. But whenever you have a much less intimidating instrument to put to your face, it’s more disarming than a massive piece of glass. The smaller the instrument, the closer you can get. These days, Price has gone digital, shooting with Olympus PEN compact systems cameras (CSC)—i.e. small mirrorless models that use tiny interchangeable lenses. His go-to lens for the new 12-megapixel Olympus PEN E-P3 is a similarly discreet choice, the 12mm F/2.0 M. Zuiko Digital ED. The 12mm focal length converts to 24mm because of the 2x magnification of the Micro Four Thirds-size image sensor in the PEN cameras.” What’s your favorite small camera?
