Actually I have used the camera that way just to see if I could, but I do hold it with both hands when I want the image.  The purpose of the above image was a simple "a picture is worth a thousand ...

If you are shooting with equivalent FOV then the camera with more pixels will have more detail on the target for better resolution, so the Nikon will have an IQ advantage. Of course you could not ...

Thanks. If I were going to use the images for anything other than a DPR post, I would crop some of them.  For DPR I rarely crop images unless I want to show specific detail.

This was the first time I have been successful in photographing Baltimore Orioles feeding their young. I thank Citicelt who first saw the nest and showed it to me. The nest was over the water in a ...

Very well done.

The E-M1s use PDAF for CAF with all mFTs lenses and PDAF for FTs lenses with the FTs to mFTs adapter.

Very good set of images.  The 150-400 keeps tempting me.

I think your hawk was attracted by the things on your bird feeders and not the chipmunks under your feeders.

Thanks.  This was the first time I saw a nest close enough to really appreciate its construction.  Unfortunately I was unable to return in time to see the young fledge.

This was the first time I have been successful in photographing Baltimore Orioles feeding their young. I thank Citicelt (a photographer who also happens to have an Olympus E-M1.2 with 300mm f4 as ...

If the problem was caused by a corrupted firmware update, a downgrade to the previous version could remove the problem.  You would then re-update the firmware to the current version.  I think this ...

There is probably still a real factory reset option on the E-M1.2 (not the one in the Menu). I have ended up in the test parameter screens (accidentally checking shutter count) mentioned in the ...

Missed that. The OP might do a factory reset. The following from a 2017 post on another forum site for an orientation problem "Looks as if the fault has been cleared by Jez our local Olympus rep, ...

Menu - Playback Menu - second camera icon with two way arrow.  Turn it ON.

If you put a feeder close to a window, then put window deals on the window or hang things in front of the window. If anything scares a bird they fly in the opposite direction and the reflection of ...

You have two problems.  One can be solved by getting a longer focal length lens, the other is likely to prevent sharp feather detail. If you are shooting through a window, you can improve your ...

I would expect the greatest movement might be from the shutter press and if the shutter button is pressed too vigorously, then stabilizer may be unable to compensate for the movement. One way to ...

If your camera is like the E-M1s, the camera keeps track of the folder name (with default settings) and increases the file name by one for each image and folder number by one ever 9999 images even ...

Thanks.  Stabilization allows very low shutter speeds, it helps when the bird cooperates.

Newer cameras certainly help.  I would not have even tried to photograph the warbler ten years ago.
