Honestly, it helps but I notice better hit rate when I prioritize frame rate over IS. EVF high refresh rate helps me noticing focus confirmation (green dot) as well as where the focus box on the subject better as I track the subject. However, for a very fast moving subject such as falcon or swift, it becomes irrelevant for me.

With someone as skill as you, I am sure you will eventually find what works best for you. However, I don't think you can expect it to be as good as the like of Sony or Canon AF system as those are class leading IMHO.

I didn;t know about the refresh rate or frame rate impacts on BIF. Will try that out. Thank you!

Very nice. This makes me want to hit the road to my usual 1.5hours drive wildlife refuge. There are 3 bald eagles couples resident and they would be doing the same as in this photo ;-).

I think I will wait another week for my back pain issue to full goes away. That two weeks of -10 to -25C caused me a lot of issue and I barely touched my gear until recently.

Greater Spotted Eagle with a frog in the Claws. Frog was alive during the whole flight i could hear its deathly voice before the eagle perched on the nearby tree and the end of the life of a frog.
Shot with Em1X + 300f/4

The spoonbills were at Clive this afternoon. Was starting to get a bit dull lightwise, as heavy purple cloud was looming, and we did get some rain, but not nearly enough.

Back in my garden - I think I need to stop down the 75-300 a fair bit at the long end, noise be damned...

Tracked this little bird in the park today using some suggestions from @atomicmak. I am embarrassed to admit that this is the first time I am using shutter priority mode with auto ISO to get high shutter speeds for bird photography.

You are suppose to zoom backwards with your feet to get all of the baldy in the frame. I don't think I have ever been too close to an eagle before.

Harvey, good suggestion,'cept I had an ocean behind me! Probably not much of a problem in Utah.
