Hello.
For the benefit of others i would like to note all the problems i found unfortunately by myself rather then anyone reporting it on YouTube.
1. EM1-II will not work in continues focus mode whenever the Lens range limiter switch is set to 5m-infinity. It will work OK when the range limiter is set to Infinity.
Lots of posts on this. Don't use the lens focus limiter, the camera can set 3 different ones to the distances you want. The camera one is much better than any lens implementation.
2. Pre Capture new feature highlighted so much by Olympus will also not work with Panasonic 100-400 lens. Thos options LPreCapture and HPreCapture will be left gray not allowing the user to select them. It will work only with Olympus lens as the 40-150 F2.8.
3. Not sure exactly how the IBIS and OIS work together , even that in general i had no notable issues.
Again several posts. Some find the OIS has a problem with panning and recommend IBIS for moving wildlife, but the OIS for stationary images. The two do not work together.
I have a gx8 and 100-400, and also 100% agree with your statement above regarding IBIS and OIS not working well together for birding under certain circumstances, especially when the subject is at a great distance! In fact my shots with the older gx7 which does not support Dual IS are sharper, but at 16mp less detailed. So am strongly considering trying to find the money for a EM1 mk2 if it solves the Panasonic Dual stabilisation 'soft image ' issue!
Will appreciate other adding their own experience with the EM1-I and Panasonic 100-400 combination.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
