Experimenting with a lighter-weight system due to some shoulder issues - loving the OM-D EM1 II so far. Image quality does not quite match up to the Canon full-frame I am used to (especially at high ISO) but the in-body stabilization and 60FPS raw capture open up some new possibilities.

A nice sharp eye and a pretty setting - cool that you can use your Canon lenses and get stabilization as well.

Nice work, the little Oly does a nice job, I've used an old Canon 200mm f4 macro FD lens on mine via adapter and the focus peaking feature really helps particularly in helping to ensure you are parallel to something like a damselfly to get it all in focus.. Nice job on the bee in this shot.
