@rogerhance5883 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the kind comment. I could be wrong, but I do not think Pro Capture works with back button focusing. You have to set it to shutter button focus for ProCap. I am not 100% sure about this, so maybe contact someone at OM1 solutions to clarify. I find back button focus has not advantage with the subject detection on the Om1 being so good.

Would like to use it for a starting point and see what I can do. :) Great video - very helpful.

Hi Roger. Great shots. I notice that you set Bird Ai with C-AF + Tracking. This is an area I am confused about. When to use C-AF with Bird Ai alone and when to add in + Tracking as Bird AI with C-AF alone seems to track birds anyway. Help!
@michaelhamilton70372 жыл бұрын
Bumping this question up. I too was wondering if/when C-AF+Tracking might help/hinder subject tracking? I think the if the focus area is restricted to be smaller than the entire frame and C-AF+Tracking is on, then a recognised subject will continue to be tracked if it leaves the restricted focus area. But I'd be interested to know if there are other uses for it - for example, could it make the camera stick with one bird in the frame in preference to jumping to a different one?

Excellent video Roger, how effective do you find the autofocus tracking to be on the OM-1 ? Are most shots in focus on the fighting finches or just the occasional one? The fixed focus on procap high on the EM1x is a drawback.
@rogerhance58832 жыл бұрын
Sorry for the delay in replying to your question John. I somehow missed this one. The autofocus on the OM1 is the best I have ever used. Most of the shots of the fighting finches were sharp. The fixed focus of the EM1X was a drawback , as it still is when using SH1 on the OM1. With the new` low setting` on the OM1 -SH2 (50fps) , you get continous autofocus, so the number of sharp images increases significantly. It makes things too easy really !

It was particularly instructive to see how you cropped one of your images as I always wonder how much cropping goes on with these sorts of shots. (Inevitable of course with this sort of action).

I was using a cable release. Its easier than holding your hand up to the camera all the time.
