Welcome, wherever you may be
We’ve been around since 2007, we’re an independent UK-centric site, but we number many members from all over the world.
No matter where you are from you are very welcome.
Our origins
With the support of Olympus UK, this site was created to provide a dedicated online home for users of Olympus digital system camera gear.
The site is run by Ian Burley, a veteran tech and digital imaging journalist, who retains industry links, particularly with OM System.
Originally, this site was developed for users of Olympus E-System Four Thirds system cameras and lenses, hence the E-Group' moniker. When Micro Four Thirds arrived, we embraced the mirrorless Pen and, later, OM-D systems too. And now, of course, OM System.
Who we cater for
If you use, or even if you are just thinking about using, Olympus or OM System camera bodies and/or lenses, we offer you a friendly and informative place to discuss common interests and to post photos. Users from other Four Thirds and Micro Four Thirds (like Panasonic Lumix) ranks are also very welcome.

We operate a light-touch moderation policy and encourage any disagreements in debates to be amicably resolved - to agree to disagree! This has been one of the hallmarks of the site since day one.
