Re: EM1 MKII Lock Up
Have you tried with a high speed memory? I use normally Lexar 2000X, never micro versions with adapter, since two years I have not seen that malfunction.

Re: Please advise
Color is good, but to improve what you mention try not to make photos at noon with direct sunligth, it produces very harsh contrast. Early morning, afternoon or a bit cloudy days are better.

Re: C-AF - tight/loose
I only use C-AF and I’m almost sure the sensitivy factor does take effect. Those pictures are taken at 0, and shows the camera maintaining the focus even in very challenging scenes with birds flying...

Re: Back button focusing
Once you get used to it you will not change back. BTW, this is not a global setting so if you use C1-C3 programmes, you have to set this in all programmes.

Re: Long Dilemma - please help

That's what I thought... but the fact is that the lens does the reset every time it goes to iddle status so every minute or so. It takes a second to refocus again and this is not good when doing BIF,...
