Wonderful experience very well captured. All images are great and difficult to choose a favourite but I love the 3rd image. That one I would print and hang on my wall.

This is one of my favourites too, will post more images with another fav later

Very well done and exciting to see how capable m43 is at producing such great wildlife action.

Yes it is and from what i have seen so far, the FF DSLR photographers in my group did not come home with better results than i did.

Now all i am missing is a 150-300/2.8-4 that can be used with the converter or maybe even a 150-450/4-5.6 Pro zoom. I know it is going to be big and expensive but all my nature and wildlife shots seem to require a zoom to be flexible enough, no matter if being on a safari where you cannot simply reposition or on events like this tiger photo shoot where the animal covered a large distance too fast to change lenses.

Due to the smaller sensor such a zoom needs to be relatively fast and usable wide open to be able to combine fast shutter speeds with reasonably low ISO for fur and feathers.
