If that happened with all lenses, I would agree.  However, it only occurs with certain lenses all of which are FTs lenses.  I do not see how a shutter problem with affect only some lenses at some ...

Good set of images.  My Cedar Waxwings are always in the top of trees with lots of leaves.

Based on my demonstration of the "jello" effect with a fast pan with the mechanical shutter, I would guess that the bright area is the last exposed part of the image. Panning to the left.

If you take the lenstip results with the TC and compute the loss of resolution with the crop, the TC wins.

I have used my 300mm f4 with my E-M10 (when my E-M1.1 was away for 1 week in repair) and it was far more challenging with the E-M10.  I found CAF to be basically unusable and had to resort to ...

I would agree, but he indicated that it only happened with two of his FTs lenses and not the other two.  If it was a camera shutter issue, I would think it would happen with all lenses.  Of ...

That is can be a problem with cameras using SAF where the focus is locked once confirmed, but is not a problem with the E-M1.2 using CAF for all images other than those where you want to ...

I have compared the two and using the TC is better than a crop.  There is not a lot of difference, but for more distant, small targets, it is important.

I believe Flicker reduction is only important for video under artificial light.  I turned it off on my E-M1.1, since I could not stand the noisy FTs lenses (12-60 and 50-200) and never had a ...

Great shots of a beautiful bird.

Well done.  I know how difficult these are.  I used to photograph them in Florida.  Really nice to get the fish in the second one.  It was almost always covered by the splash when I managed to get ...

Good set.  Young coots are a little strange looking compared to the adults, but cute.

That the Sony 24-70 f4 is not comparable to the Olympus 12-40 f2.8 lens in sharpness, so the OP would probably want to choose a different Sony lens.  I attached the graphs only because that was ...
