I have tested the new firmware update and the improvement is remarkable for birds in flight and moving animals like dogs. The hit rate is about 75% depending on the subject and circumstances. For running dogs towards me it is about 95%, for small flying birds is about 70%, but…

The EM-1X has very good AF but I’ve never seen anything as good as the Sony A9. So it all just depends on how often you shoot Birds in flight and how important that is to you. At this point, I’ve not purchased the Sony system since I’m not excited…
