The 100-300 is one of those lenses that make m43 very attractive in my opinion. The right balance of focal length, aperture, and size that fits the primary m43 attraction for me over full frame gear, mainly bulk and weight.
Exactly. I pretty much know where this is heading already. I told myself I wanted inexpensive and I wasn't going to heavily invest in another system. But leaving the house the other day to shoot those yardbirds I could almost slip that combo into my coat pocket And that felt great. Try that with the Z9 and 180-600 So while I love my Z system I can see a space for a second hand OM-1 and 100-400 in the future

Seeing that there's a very real possibility I may be the only bozo on earth shooting a Z9 and OM-5 side by side, I thought someone may find this interesting

Excellent images, Gary! I love Blue Jays -- they really look out for one another -- and of course they're as pretty as can be.
P.S. As someone's Great Grandpa, I'll stick with the m4/3's set up. :-)

Thank you! I really like they way both branches went downward.
I know exactly where you got that fox I'm going to be back to California third week of April. Hope to get down there at least once. Just curious, was the Red-tailed along the coast also ?
