Help me understand why you shoot in Shutter Speed priority mode as to posed to M. With the 2 dials you can control both S and A and you can change the exposure compensation with a button. Perhaps you want faster control of your +/-? But how do you control your aperture? I just bought the OM-1, but I have been shooting for years with a couple of EM-1s. With those I found that using the AF limiter control say 20-30 meters (for puffins in flight) improved my keeper rate tremendously. I hope that the OM-1 improves my keeper rate. My wife shoots with the Canon R5 and her keeper rate and ability to crop is in another league. I am too heavily invested in the m4/3 system to make the switch.

Wow nice going Rob. There is so much to learn and practice with OM1 AF. Shooting birds on a stick and in flight to and from said stick I have been running in to problem with AF point and subject detection jumping to other birds which suddenly appear in the frame. Your magic words about subject detect, no tracking and using all photo points has worked wonders. Holding the shutter button half pressed in Pro capture sh2 I am amazed how the white square and then the eye square appear over the bird no mater where it is in the viewfinder.
BUT then another bird appears and the subject square jumps around. What can I set to make the subject detect more sticky? I know, short question and a very long story but I just want to thank you again for going so deep into the OM1 menu explanations.

No one , no one explained it better than you…and I searched a lot….!!!!…thx
-
Great explanations Rob, as always. The best Oly educator, from OMD EM10 MKII up to OM-1! 👋👋👋
-
Thanks! Appreciate the explanation!
-
Absolutely superb explanation & demonstrations of technique Rob...thank you....🙏🏻
-
Thanks Rob! This is a very clear and logical explanation of your methods.
-
Thank's a lot Rob for this useful advice! In future I also will shoot BIF with shutter priority - it makes more sense than in manual mode. Manual mode means controlling everthing: Aperture, shutter speed, exposure compensation, but in a hurry it ist too much for my brain too. It works well for static motifs like forests, flowers and mushrooms.
-
Great explanation and illustration of the C-AF sensitivity settings Rob. Thanks for your time and effort making this.
-
Thanks, Rob 👍 I've been a diehard manual shooter for years but just a few months ago decided to try shutter priority, it's been a revelation! Also interesting to find out more about the subject detect settings etc.
-
Thank you Rob. Another excellent video with practical demos, which aids the understanding and learning.
-
Also a great technique for shooting event work where multiple faces will confuse the AF too 👍
-
Great video Rob. I am around 6 weeks away from having an OM-1 in my hands and this video will help a lot. Thank you in advance.
-
Thanks
-
Really useful! Thanks Rob
-
Very clear explanations Rob! Love your videos -- they are very helpful.
-
Great explanation!! Thank you!
-
Very good explained.
-
Perfect explanation
-
Thanks for answering my question regarding the exposure settings Rob. I would be worried that my aperture would increase in bright light conditions. I want the maximum shallow depth of field possible, that's why I set it manually. To each their own. Maybe I'll try your method in my next outing, today in the Algarve to see what happens with the aperture.
-
Wow...Rob you really work at all this. Using minus 2 helped but using the lever to move between full and cross AF points was the big help. Now if you can explain how to tie all this in to my mind so I can move the focus point instantly when the bird jumps around it would be great!!! Thank you so much. There are multiple ways to move the focus point though...right? Maybe if you have not yet covered that then you might try another video to explain this action on the OM1. Joe McGrath

If you want your E-M10ii (my E-PL7) to follow-focus quickly when you're doing a talking-head vlog behind a desk, to switch to your hand or "product" and back - turn the recognition off and aim the AF-C focus point(s) at your head. Anything placed in front of you will grab the focus. Otherwise it will try to stay with the "actor", for much the same reason as the OM-1 sensitivity makes it sticky. This applies to most any camera used for this.
