For unrestricted views I use Auto AF with bird detection as Steve Perry recommends. I was sceptical as it will focus where the camera thinks it should, but it locks onto birds straight away and then you can engage 3D tracking if required. For single point I use Custom C2 1x1 with bird detection. When I need no bird detection I use single point from the Lfn-1 button, but this is rarely required. Great video, thanks.

Have you used adapted Canon EF zoom lenses on the OM1? If so how do they perform (with or without a TC)? I have a LUMIX G9 and 70-200mm f2.8L IS and 1.4TC. Obviously the G9 isn’t fantastic for AF and I only have a speed booster adapter, not a plain electronic / smart adapter. I’m interested to know how the PDAF MFT cameras perform with adapted lenses.

Great video boss straightforward explanation. But I already have far to many shots to wade through at 9 fps. I also recon I could and do get these shots with a prehistoric 850. But my images will of course be raw and at least of equal quality (some say better). The method I use is two eyes open. So the shot is set up and I then go to live view silent mode. Then I use a trigger release and a good old saying from my army days "watch and shoot" Yes on occasions I miss the first shot but hey we have to have something to come back for next time. If I set it to mode 2 I can get 30 fps jpeg! I guess the advantage of the Z9 and 8 is the focusing?
@Blinsaff27 күн бұрын
Cheers! Advantage of the Z8/9 is the focus and no blackout of the viewfinder when shooting at high speeds. But in the end it’s whatever works and lets you get the shot, even if it’s with “vintage” tech!
