Re: EM-1 Goes on Safari (17 pics)

Thanks for the nice comments. I used the E-M1 with the 100-300 probably 95% of the time, while my wife used a G3 with the 14-140. She is not into photography so she just went with iAuto. I also carried the 7-14 and 20 f1.7 in my backpack but used them very sparingly.

In terms of action shots there are very few. The area we were in was scrub land not open savannah so if the animals were running it was usually behind tons of brush, branches, etc. Actually it made even stationary shots difficult most of the time. I would think you'd have trouble with any camera system in that environment trying to get action shots.
