Looks good, David!
One of these days, I have to try using AF-C with tracking with the Leica SL.
I'll need the SL90-280 lens, I suspect.

Good evening, flexers...
I bought the new Olympus because of the promise of much better tracking AF.
The E-M1 Mk I is an extremely capable piece of kit, but not good at tracking
moving objects.
The early reviews of the Mark II model, say that the tracking AF is much
improved, but then they go and use a guy on a bicycle as a test!
I thought shooting motocross bikes, on frozen lakes, doing 80 kph (50 mph),
and coming almost straight at the camera, would be a much better test. (They
clock in at around 110kph or 70+ mph on the straight-away, but the lean in
the corners makes for a more dramatic shot, so only 50mph. Sorry.)
I'm still figuring out how to best use it, but I thought, for a first test,
the little Oly did OK.

Of course, there is always a spill or two, as someone tries to go just a wee
bit faster than is wise, in the corner.

Look large, if you can.
Comments, criticism welcomed, as always.
