Very nice images Jean Pierre... How did the autofocus perform in the Botanical Gardens?

Not perfectly. Often, I have to touch the LCD screen in order to tell the camera that I want it to focus there.

I have had mixed results with autofocus when photographing birds with my 40-150 PRO 2.8 with both my E-M10 in and my E-M5 II..especially in lower light situations..

My experience is identical to yours.

I'm on the fence about getting MC-14.. But your post us making it a lot more difficult to resist the temptation

I wouldn't go back using the M.Zuiko 40-150mm without the MC-14 teleconverter, mainly because it makes it easier for me to transport that telezoom (explained in an earlier message in this thread).
