Built-In GND: Does it really work??

Join me as I journey to the beautiful Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area to put my OM System OM-1 MkII’s innovative Live GND feature to the test. When faced with a scene that has a large dynamic range of light, photographers typically rely on graduated neutral density filters or capture a series of exposure bracketed shots for blending in post-processing. But what if your camera could handle it all internally? In this video, I’ll explore whether the OM-D MkII’s internal Live GND filter can effectively replace traditional methods. Will this computational photography feature allow us to travel lighter and simplify our workflow? Watch as I capture some amazing landscapes and reveal if this feature is a game-changer for photographers.
