Your instructor in on top of her game! Now all she has to do is set up a website and then start advertising BIF workshops!

Poof doesn't participate on forums but this is one of her shots via M1ii + Oly 300mm.
She'll tell you, for first time BIF is in her life because of the M1ii-
i think I will pass on this lens. I'll keep holding out hope for an Oly 100-400 IS PRO. Won't be lightweight (nor will it be inexpensive), but it would be the lens I would use most.
Now that PL 8-18, that one is of interest

Hey all.
Any interest in the PL 50-200
Surely I'm not the only one

Yes sir, that 8-18 is an eye catcher.
I'll pass on the kind words to Poof.
She really is better than me; I just have more kit
Luckily/happily at least in the mFT world we can share and share alike!
She has Sony stuff too but since getting the M1ii she has not touched
the a6300 or FE 70-300G. She's just an Oly girl. She did say on the upcoming
trip to Utah she's going to force herself to use the EOS M5 but I bet she'll
have Oly stuff along too.
IMHO the 4/3 tunas, little tuna 150/2.0, zoom tuna 90-250/2.8, and big tuna 300/2.8 are in a league of their own and are unmatched by m4/3 lenses. They also seem to shine on the E-M1.2 with the EC-14 and EC-20.
My set is slightly back focusing on the E-M1.2. However, that can be easily corrected with an AutoFocusMicroAdjustment AFMA of -2 or -3. AFMAs can be set from -20 to +20.
It should be pointed out that a lens and a lens+EC-14 and a lens+EC-20 each have their own named AFMA. After an image is taken the AFMA used can be viewed in camera or with OV3. It also should be noted that the Tele and Wide end of zoom tuna each have their own AFMA.
BTW each prime lens actually has a matrix of AFMAs for groups of focus points, each zoom lens a matrix for Tele and Wide. However there is an easy way to set them all to the same value.

Not quite right, K-H. Olympus have said, when they launched the 300 PRO, that this is the sharpest lens that they have ever produced in their long history of making fine optics ... and the MTF charts bear testimony to this. Bokeh and OOF rendering is a different story, of course, and f2.8 will always be superior to f4. But in terms of sharpness the newer 300/4 is a little better.
Bobby, in your book is there only sharpness of a lens that counts?
Try to shoot your lens at f/2.8. Compare the bokehs, ...
Are there MTF charts for the tunas? I would like to see those.

I have qualified that. No, sharpness isn't everything. I am actually more concerned about bokeh and OOF rendering, micro/tonal contrast, color, etc.
