Olympus trialled a prototype E-7 alongside a new micro4/3rds professional grade camera which, they believed, could compete with and even out-perform the E-5's successor. So the 4/3rds faithful held their nerve and waited. When no replacement to the E-5 was forthcoming Olympus hinted that an E-7 was being prototyped even though they had always maintained m4/3rds was their preferred option. Resonating in our collective minds was Olympus' promise to always provide a body capable of FULLY exploiting 4/3rds glass and Toshi Terada's promise of One Beautiful System. Yes the lenses will mount via the MMF adapters but the AF performance was lacking for all but landscape, table-top and macro work. We have been concerned that our beloved 4/3rds lenses were not fully supported by m4/3rds machines. Those of us who subscribed to Olympus' Four-Thirds camera system have been denied any follow-up to the E-5, let alone any of the lesser iterations for several years. The E-M5 was the first in a series of micro-fourthirds machines aimed at the advanced amateur with the promise of a further machine at the Professional level later in the series - this is the E-M1. The OM-D series was introduced to us through the E-M5 about 18 months ago and stands above the Pen series. So I am sticking to still photography which, I believe, (and Olympus underscores) is the fundamental purpose of this camera. I do not pretend to be versed in video/movies nor do I have any more than a passing knowledge about making and processing video. The E-M1 is a sophisticated machine capable of video as well as still photography.

That said out of camera jpg's are so good these days I tend to use jpg's for most of my work but set the camera for jpg and RAW in difficult conditions. Look at the on-line forums for recommendations. However, as regards sharpening and noise reduction, there are much better softwares out there. I use Viewer for all my RAW manipulating needs I believe it gives the best results for colour rendition and general tweaking. Having tried several RAW developer softwares I prefer Olympus Viewer even though it can be slow and lacks some sophistication. You will need your cameras serial number. If your current Olympus software is outdated the upgrade(s) can be obtained from within the software itself through HELP/UPGRADE SOFTWARE tab while connected to the Internet. I'd recommend Viewer 3 over other softwares (for now) if you want the latest RAW development capabilities and support for new cameras. Please Note: Any RAW files I provide can be manipulated with Olympus Viewer 3 version 1.1 (latest version).

Lower altitudes throughout central and southern Japan (not Hokkaido). Leaves small, 4–7 cm ( 1 + 1⁄ 2– 2 + 3⁄ 4 in) wide, with five or seven lobes and double-serrate margins seed wings 10–15 mm ( 3⁄ 8– 5⁄ 8 in). The overall form of the tree can vary from upright to weeping. Įven in nature, Acer palmatum displays considerable genetic variation, with seedlings from the same parent tree typically showing differences in such traits as leaf size, shape, and color. The seeds of Acer palmatum and similar species require stratification in order to germinate. The fruit is a pair of winged samaras, each samara 2–3 cm ( 3⁄ 4– 1 + 1⁄ 4 in) long with a 6–8 mm ( 1⁄ 4– 5⁄ 16 in) seed. The flowers are produced in small cymes, the individual flowers with five red or purple sepals and five whitish petals. The leaves are 4–12 cm ( 1 + 1⁄ 2– 4 + 3⁄ 4 in) long and wide, palmately lobed with five, seven, or nine acutely pointed lobes. In habit, its canopy often takes on a dome-like form, especially when mature. It may have multiple trunks joining close to the ground. Description Īcer palmatum is deciduous, with the growth habit of a shrub or small tree reaching heights of 6 to 10 m (20 to 33 ft), rarely 16 m (52 ft), reaching a mature width of 4.5 to 10 m (15 to 33 ft), often growing as an understory plant in shady woodlands. Many different cultivars of this maple have been selected and they are grown worldwide for their large variety of attractive forms, leaf shapes, and spectacular colors. Acer sanguineum Carrière 1867 not Spach 1834Īcer palmatum, commonly known as Japanese maple, palmate maple, or smooth Japanese maple (Japanese: irohamomiji, イロハモミジ, or momiji, (栴), is a species of woody plant native to Japan, Korea, China, eastern Mongolia, and southeast Russia.Acer roseomarginatum (Van Houtte) Koidz. Cannabis is a deep and nuanced experience, you’ll want to take the time to find what you like.” Don’t just buy what’s on sale that day, or go off of the fanciest packaging or strain name. “Additionally, I think customers should be mindful to buy from licensed retailers, selling licensed products that have been tested. “Testing results are an important way for consumers to confirm that the product is safe and has been tested by a third-party lab,” he says. Knowing that this is a lot of information to take in, Khalid Al-Naser, head of product at Raw Garden, offers shoppers some tips: “In Jetty’s case we only use ice, water, heat, and pressure with our proprietary technology and equipment to make what we believe is the cleanest vape product and experience a consumer can buy.”. ![]() “When you see a solventless product, it means that no chemicals were used in the process of making the highly concentrated material,” Jetty’s Nate Ferguson says. But solventless extracts - which have been around for as long as the cannabis plant has existed, in the form of hashish, kief, ice water hash, and other concentrates - are also gaining steam in the vape market. When done correctly, it’s completely safe for the consumer and shouldn’t affect the experience. Like THC distillate, live resin is extracted with solvents, like butane. This freezing process halts the degradation of the plant terpenes and cannabinoids. Live resin also uses weed that is frozen at harvest time instead of being dried, as it would if it was going to be sold as flower. You’re actually getting the good stuff from a single plant - not the dregs and trim of multiple plants. Meaning there’s no need for the artificial flavoring that THC distillate carts often add back in. Connected - a high-end cannabis brand known chiefly for its high-octane, indoor-grown “designer” weed - recently released its new vape line, which is made with whole-plant, single-source “live resin.” Due to the extraction process, everything from the plant, including THC and unique strain terpenes. A manufacturer then incorporates artificial additives or other plant terpenes for flavor. “Many consumers are unaware of the vast difference between vape carts filled with distillate extracts and those that use whole plant live resin.”Ĭounts is quick to note that distillate carts are often created with the leftover trim of several different strains, which means that only flavorless and odorless THC is extracted to produce oil for smoking. “One of the most common misconceptions is that all vapes are created equal,” adds Caleb Counts, co-founder of Connected Cannabis Co. ![]() “In layman’s terms, think of distillate like concentrated orange juice, live resin as pasteurized orange juice, and solventless products like fresh-squeezed orange juice - most of the time, consumers would rather have the fresh stuff,” says Nate Ferguson, co-founder and head of production at Jetty Extracts. It is also responsible for the lackluster high many report after vaping cannabis oils. THC distillate is a mono-cannabinoid oil and is the standard issue substance found in the vast majority of cannabis vape carts. Why? Not only has the quality of vape carts gone up but manufacturers are finally using better extracts and concentrates to make them, rather than THC distillate. But I’ve recently added more vapes back into my rotation. My tolerance quickly rose, owing to the high THC concentration in the oils, and I found I needed to smoke more and more just to get a little buzz.Īlmost as quickly as I jumped in, I weaned myself off of vape carts and went back to actual weed, which is where my loyalties still lie. Mostly, the high I got was a low-grade body high. It also felt one-dimensional - I didn’t get the visual effects from smoking weed, nor the different emotional effects. For starters, I found that whatever high came from smoking cannabis vape carts was often short-lived. ![]() As time went on, though, I realized that I didn’t really like the high I got from most carts (as they are often called for short). Initially, I loved that vape carts are portable, which allowed me to be even more of a stoner in public and in other situations where smoking weed isn’t appropriate or possible. ![]() “This is… future weed!” I remember thinking. After decades of smoking, you know, actual weed, puffing on a vape cart for the first time was a revelation. I’ll never forget the first time I smoked out of a cannabis oil vape cartridge years ago.

With some recognition of the military qualifications and skills, this initial training is where time and cost savings could be made.Įuropean training diagram – ATCO common Core ContentĢ.11. This process is to prepare the controller for live training at an ATC unit. This initial course can take anything from 6-9 months depending on which rating they acquire (rimes based on surveyed European and non-European associations). On successful completion of this course, they are issued a student licence. Civilian ATCOs start their training with an initial course which includes a basic course and then rating training. ![]() This is not to say the reason for a transfer is about remuneration, but more about the recognition for the work that military controllers provide during their service.Ģ.4. The remuneration and benefits can be vastly different. Military and civilian controllers can often work alongside each other during their careers and at times, control the same civil air traffic. Not having a licence endorsed by EASA or ICAO will require military air traffic controllers, on leaving the military, to convert their licence to either an ICAO or an EASA compliant licence before they can continue their career in civilian ATC.Ģ.3. Also, airports like Northolt are controlled by military ATCOs who will often provide services to civilian air traffic.Ģ.2. In the UK for example, military ATCOs hold “Certificates of Competency” which do not conform to ICAO or EASA standards. However, if a state chooses to, it can apply these standards to military ATCOs who provide services to the public (EU 2015/340 Article 3.1). ![]() They do however operate in accordance with state requirements and military orders. Military ATCO licences, when issued, do not have to comply with ICAO or EASA standards as these standards are for civilian air traffic control. To understand the reasons behind the current situation, this paper looks at the licensing regulations in the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and investigates what happens in states around the world.Ģ.1. Recognising military qualifications and skills could enable training times to be reduced or eliminated.ġ.4. Military ATCOs having to commence their training from the beginning, relearning topics and practices they have already covered before is time that could be saved. With training times of 2-3 years, there is a push from bodies (A4E – Airlines for Europe) within Europe to reduce the time it takes to train an ATCO. The ability to train ATCOs quickly could go some way to meeting this shortfall. The impact of these shortages within Europe and around the world can cause serious travel disruption, often in peak times ( ).ġ.3. To combat this, Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) like NATS in the UK, are initiating recruitment drives ( ). A rising problem in civil aviation is the scarcity of air traffic controllers. Military ATCOs, looking to transfer into civilian ATC are often required to complete the full initial training course as an ab-initio.ġ.2. More often than not however this does not happen. When looking to enter civilian ATC, this previous experience could allow for reduced training times by removing topics that have already been taught. Military Air Traffic Control Officers (ATCOs) have to complete an initial training course with their military organisation. There are service men and women leaving the military who potentially have lots of experience in the air traffic control (ATC) profession. 1991 – Port of Spain (Trinidad & Tobago)ġ.1.INFORMATION ON PROFESSIONAL MATTERS (INFO).TECHNICAL AND PROFESSIONAL MANUAL (TPM). ![]() REMOTELY PILOTED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (RPAS).Military to Civilian Licence Conversion | Skip to main content |
