Shooting At Speed

Discover how ambassador Mike Inkley delivers live shots straight out of the Olympus system

With over 30 years worth of published work behind him, Mike Inkley provides live and dynamic motorsport content to the national press. Speed and image quality is paramount to the work he produces, as editing rarely fits in with his client’s live reporting deadlines. Speedy subjects are where Mike spends most of his time, so he needs a camera that can keep up. He shoots fast cars and jets, but is equally at home in nature, and liberally intersperses this with “hiding in the wilderness for a bit of a break”.

Embracing the change

Mike was a Canon Pro for many years, but swapped to the Olympus system in 2015 with the OM-D E-M1 Mark I. “I upgraded to the Mark II earlier this year, and business is booming as a result,” he says.
