Phones are changing expectations about firmware, but many industries don't yet follow that model. The camera makers have not really intended that a model would change substantially via firmware. ...

I presuming you want a group photo rather than a close up of a single bird.
The really sharp 75mm f/8 at 15 feet might crop OK. A 100mm f/8 at 20 feet might also work. Experiment with the...

I'm not saying "Don't use a lot of things" - I routinely use about 10 settings on the super control panel, plus the right button for ISO, the info button to cycle from levels to blinkies, the FN2...

From what I gather unless you are majorly into photography, own expensive monitors, printers, etc, then it's maybe best to stick with sRGB - otherwise Adobe RGB just adds more complexity for no...

A very rewarding take everywhere lens.
Hooker River exiting Hooker Lake, Mt Cook in background
Clay Cliffs, Omarama
And the 12-50 with the EM-5's level indicators is also very useful for...

I've not had much luck with wading birds in the water at low shutter speeds - they tend to move about. I think 1/200 is a bit slow for a bird that is moving.
You could have gone to ISO 1000, it...

It's not an issue, it's a feature.

If you need to purchase a hood, you should also be aware that there are high rated sellers on ebay selling knock off copies. I've got the uWinKa LH-40 and LH-61D - both seemed as good as the real...

Do the lines show up on images? Hopefully not. If yes, it sounds similar to this thread:

In this instance my main interest was how to maximise detail given the dark colour of the Herons. The shutter speed must clearly remain high. Your suggestion of a tripod would be appropriate. ...

The landing and takeoff captures are impressive - looks chaotic.
I don't often shoot in this kind of situation - with the sky dominating - I would be interested to know what works best. Clearly...

Placed 42nd in the challenge. Alpine Grasshopper, Near Mueller Hut, Mt Cook area, New Zealand. In rocks, no grass to be seen anywhere.

How could people not love the 40-150 R? Sure 75-300 is a lot to handle, but that's down to technique and knowing your limits.
I guess people want wider apertures.

No, no CA correction. I noticed it, but as you say, it was barely evident.
Yes, a winner. Very pleasing right out of the box.

Another good example of what's possible.
I would image a little PP would eliminate much of the difference, if any, between the mkI and II. Especially when you consider most bird images are a...

Handheld birding with autofocus with the E-M5 and 75-300 is quite possible. The keeper rate might be lower, but pausing to set up a monopod or tripod might also lower the keeper rate.
Practise...

I've had a 75-300 II for three days now. I'm using it on an OM-D E-M5.
Focus is generally quite snappy in a wide variety of lighting conditions. In bad light with a dark or low contrast target...
