G'Mornin', Tina & Joel..
The problem in the first set..
http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Stake_2011-13.html
is not in the photograph, but in WHEN the photo was taken. The E3 tracked the
rider well, during the crash, and by the time I had reacted, snow was
everywhere.
The E-M5 would not track the rider, until he was almost stopped, as you can
tell, from the very small amount of snow spray coming from the front fender.
While it is a good quality shot, it does not have the impact of the top shot.
The second set is simply to illustrate what the E3 can do, and which I would
hope the E-M5 would have done. But, it didn't.
Thanks for looking, and for your kind words.
David.
