I had always used IS Auto as well until a friend (fellow OM-1 user) advised using IS-1. I switched to IS-1 and I 'believe' I get more keepers with perched and BIF (this years BIF season is just starting now so I am short on data to analyze just yet).
a few months ago i read/heard Petr Bambousek uses IS-2 (panning) for BIF so I tried that (still have that setting active for BIF). I honestly don't know if it's an improvement or not as I am also pretty dull regarding these types of observations which is why I ask others about these things
Thanks for your time.

I use auto and C-AF electronic shutter even for perched birds. I take multiple shots even with perched birds and at high shutter speeds because one never knows when the critter takes off.
So, 1/3200 C-AF SH-2 25 f/s (mark 1) Subject ID bird S-IS auto. Adjust exp comp in AUTO ISO

Thanks for the feedback guys. Really appreciate it. I'll keep experimenting and see how it goes.

I traded some "Z" stuff that wasn't getting enough use for this combo specifically to have a smallish, lightweight option that I wouldn't hesitate to bring along in a "just in case" scenario. This hawk was hunting freely in a park/playground where we often bring our grandson. Needless to say I was very happy he showed up this day.
