MFT Sports and action? is it possible?
23

Hi there,

at least I know the answer for myself I’m shooting since 2 1/2 years action scenes with MFT (but also with DSLR systems).

I often receive questions if it is possible to use modern cameas like the E-M1, GH4, G7 etc. to do action shots? Is the AF-C fast enough? Wouldn’t be a DSLR the better choice?

If it is better, you have to decide but at least I can tell my experience what is possible ant what is the strength of the different systems. I’m regularly shooting sled dog, football, dirt bike, dog action and others.

I can tell that sport shoots are easily possible with the current generation of MFT camera. Whenever I see this question I’m referring to my Flickr galleries - because pictures says more than words.

This is the reason why I started a new Flickr Group for (m)FT. I’d like to encourage you to post your best action shots to this group to to have a better reference in the future To use this Gallery as Showcase for MFT action shots and what our lovely system is able to do.

I’m happy to see your shots there to promote our system also for action shots.

Cheers,
