    Step Up, Step Down, Step All Around - TDS Photography Podcast
    Jan 27 2026
    This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,036, Jan. 27, 2026. Today's theme is, "Step Up, Step Down, Step All Around." I'm Derrick Story. One of the great things about carrying around compact cameras is that you can pack two of them. And the efficiency gets ever better if you can share accessories among them. On the eve of my Mobile Photography Workshop, that's exactly what I'm going to cover today. I hope you enjoy the show. Digital Photography Podcast 1036 Tune-In Via Your Favorite Podcast App! Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In Step Up, Step Down, Step All Around Last week I focused on the OM System Tough TG-7, which I think is a technological wonder, but man does not live by ultra-compact camera alone. So in my everyday bag, along with the TG-7, I have my trusty OM System OM-3. What may surprise you, however, are the lenses and accessories that I carry with it. Because the TG-7 accepts 40.5mm filters using the handsome CLA-T01 Conversion Adapter ($37 on Amazon) or the affordable JJC Conversion Lens Adapter Ring ($9), I have an stash of cool filters for it, such as the K&F CONCEPT 40.5mm Black Diffusion 1/8 Cinematic Effect Filter and the K&F CONCEPT 40.5mm Black Diffusion 1/4 Filter Mist Cinematic Effect Filter with 18 Multi-Layer Coatings ($17.99). These would be fantastic to use with my OM-3. If only I had lenses that accepted 40.5mm filters... The lenses I carry in my everyday kit all have 37mm filter rings: Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f/2.8 pancake prime lens. (BTW: the Olympus LC-37C auto lens cap works on this optic as well). Olympus M.Zuiko 45mm f/1.8 compact telephoto. Olympus M.Zuiko 14-42mm EZ zoom lens. By now, you know the answer to this situation: a 37-40.5mm Step-Up Ring Adapter, two pieces for $6.95 With it, every filter that I carry in my bag - diffuser, polarizer, IR - works on both cameras and all of my lenses. But the efficiency doesn't stop there. My Olympus FL-300R Flash, which is smaller than a deck of cards, offers dedicated programmable exposure with the OM-3, multiple tilting angles, built-in switchable diffusion panel, and two-mode RC wireless connectivity that also works with the TG-7. So I can use it as an off-camera flash with the tough camera, or an on-camera bounce flash with the OM-3. And last, but not least, both cameras can be recharged with a basic USB-C cable. Not bad for a kit that weighs ounces, not pounds. This Week in the News Both Michael Alford and I have cool TG-6/7 articles this week on Live View. Mine is How to Create Dramatic B&W Infrared Photos with an Affordable Compact Camera, and Michael's is, A Remarkable Compact Camera That's Been Hiding in Plain Sight. I think you will enjoy them both.

    5 Impressive TG-7 Features You May Not Know About - TDS Photography Podcast
    Jan 20 2026
    This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,035, Jan. 20, 2026. Today's theme is, "5 Impressive TG-7 Features You May Not Know About." I'm Derrick Story. Our OM System Tough cameras don't get as much attention during the off season. After all, they're designed for our spring - summer - fall adventure trips. But that may change after this podcast when you discover these tips that will keep this wondrous little camera in your pocket all year round. All of that, and more, on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show. Digital Photography Podcast 1035 Tune-In Via Your Favorite Podcast App! Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In 5 Impressive TG-7 Features You May Not Know About The OM System Tough TG-7 is amazing for all weather photography - from the pouring rain, to freezing cold, to snorkeling in tropical waters. But it also inherents from Olympus DNA some nifty features that you may not be taking advantage of, at least not yet. Let me show you my 5 favorites. Focus Stacking and Focus Bracketing in Microscope Mode - With Focus Stacking, the TG-7 will process the stack in-camera and provide you with a final result that has an extended depth of field. In the Menu settings, you can choose between 3 and 10 frames for your stack, and set a short delay too. For Focus Bracketing, you can choose more frames, but you have to process them later on the computer. Art Filters and Monochrome Mode - The TG-7 includes 16 Art Filters, such as Instant Film, Dramatic Tone, Soft Focus, and Vintage. Plus, it has a full-blown Monochrome mode. All of these options are in the Picture Mode menu. Full HD 120 FPS and 4K 30p Movie Recording - Yes, it captures slow motion video and 4K with just a press of the red button on the back of the camera. Mount Filters with the Optional CLA-T01 Adapter - Accepting 40.5mm filters using the handsome CLA-T01 Conversion Adapter ($37) or the affordable JJC Conversion Lens Adapter Ring ($9). I like adding the K&F CONCEPT 40.5mm Black Diffusion 1/8 Cinematic Effect Filter for a more photographic look to my images. But just about every filter is available in this size, including polarizers. Infrared 720nm Photography with Stock Camera - Speaking of filters, add a GREEN.L 40.5mm IR 720nm (R72) Filter for $27, adjust your Custom WB settings and capture impressive color and B&W IR shots at the 25mm focal length. One-Touch Digital Compass, Thermometer, and GPS Readout - Press the Info button once when the camera is turned off and you'll be greeted with an impressive readout screen that would make a pilot smile. Long-press the Info button and activate the LED for an emergency flashlight. Add these features to its all-weather toughness and crazy-impressive macro mode, and you have a versatile pocket camera that costs about 1/3 the price of a Ricoh GR IV, and is worthy to be in your pocket all year round.
