I am trying the setup for weeks, and I want to try some not quite fast moving bird with the “High resolution” mode which blend 8 RAW to single which make 80 MP image(raw)
I am Canon user for long, and recently I have my Panasonic setup slowly build up. I like my L lens and my G9 ….
one day, someone told me . I actually can use all my L lens on my M4/3 G9 . Due to busy work schedule, I dont have time to look into it until last week. I finally have time purchase one online and test it last 2 days … I did very quick test more testing would like to do
1. AF accuracy
2. AF performance
3. can both Len and Body Image Stabilizer work together as Panasonic Len ?
if all above work well, than I would prefer to use my G9 on my Canon EF500mm F4 IS2 ….
1. pre-burst mode for G9
2. Dual IS – IBIS and Len IS
3. internal 4k , 30fps 10bit log (and future I can get GH5 for more)
4. 180fps slow motion
etc
so TEST1 – AF performance
I try both 500mm (outdoor), 1635F4IS (indoor)
BOTH give me very fast AF .. and very accurate (no fine tune done on my adapter). the new eye AF work fine with human , but not really work on big bird (buffy Fish Owl) and small bird .
TEST1 (click the picture for actual size view)
– Adjust contrast, Saturation, noise reduction

Fruithunter , a rare Borneo Endemic. which normal found near fruiting tree .
When with guests walking into trail , a bird just flew in ~5 feet from me …from the quick and fast reaction I thought it is a little cuckoo dove . But when it perch, I am wrong !!! it is a Fruithunter and a pair (male stand little bit away)
saw this pigeon few times in Genting Highland but it is either without camera or backlight to have any picture of video . This time, finally have my light setup with me and it is not that high up but still not full open for better video or picture .
