Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

@IMALlama I haven't used an A7 III to compare, but it's my understanding the Sony's autofocus is more likely to do what you want when using a wide area, and better at tracking.

I wouldn't bet on it being a better fit for your use case than your Sony but the loaner program is a great way to find out. I bought my E-M1 II after testing the E-M1 III that way.
