Which bits of the video make you think the results are awesome?

On a sort-of related note, I was playing with the E-M1 MkII C-AF + Tr mode yesterday, which I generally don't use on account of it being crap! However, I was trying it again and I had the focus ...

The only thing you could do was switch the lens IS switch on if it was off before. Holding a 420mm m43 lens still without IS is not easy. Switching on IS makes it a lot easier. If you had a non-IS ...

If that is the image quality and autofocus accuracy that you are looking for, the E-M1X will be able to achieve it too and you will be very happy with the camera.

That just isn't possible. The lens switch overrides the camera settings. You can't have lens IS off and IBIS on or vice versa. It's both or nothing.

What is it with the Oly fans on here? As far as I casn tell, nobody who has used the camera (including me) has concluded that tha C-AF is fantastic and accurate and that this is an excellent tool ...

I don't think we are going to uncover some sort of undiscovered settings. I think the sequence of gull shots that I posted above are quite telling. I may not be an Olympus visionary but I did keep ...

The series of example images from the Japanese review are using the single-point focus and not the new AI system. He says "The single-point focus is more reliable in terms of stability" and that's ...

I didn't try the 9-point AF area partly due to time constraints and partly because I find the 9-point area too small sometimes. I really wanted the 25-point area to work. It is less than a quarter ...

I would say not much better. I posted this a few days ago in another thread.

This is quite an interesting article on "reach".

Excellent shots!

The shot 4th from the end is good though!

We did have a quick try with aeroplane mode as it happens! But it didn't recognise the bird. Which I suppose is to be expected. :-)

I had a play today as well. I found the C-AF performance to be perhaps a little bit better for bif than the MkII but with similar variations in focus accuracy. i.e. some are sharp and some a bit off. ...

There is some bird in flight in this Japanese review . I did a bit of analysis of the Herons flying in it in this thread at the Olympus e-group forum here . I am going for a hands-on demo today so ...

I thought face and eye detect only worked on people? And when it does you see a white box around the face and/or a green box around the eye. Did you see that? Otherwise, your just using C-AF with a ...

I was hoping the the E-M1 MkII would get some of the C-AF changes from the E-M1X but now I am not optimistic. One of the simplest things that Olympus could have given us the 25-point AF area but ...

I like the way that he praises the auto-focus system and then shows out-of-focus images! Everyone seems to have very different standards for auto-focus accuracy. Some seem happy if the camera has ...

I afraid that I can't offer much help but if the focus changes when you are on a tripod and have manually focused, I think something must be wrong with your equipment.
