yes - you mentioned colour wheel on the others.
Ok thanks, will give it a try when home tonight [emoji3]
Hope you get what you want - I think you can only change the red and green, but there are various other starting points if you don't choose auto.
Sorry for the late response Maarten, been a busy few weeks, that and I really don't do a lot of action type shots.Hi Steve - just wondering if you managed to try out the new settings? While I was at Bushy Parkrun yesterday, I tried tracking a few moving dogs with the settings I suggested and I got quite a good keeper rate, despite not really being used to doing this - runners are definitely more predictable!
A few examples - not the greatest shots in the world but they are all critically sharp if you zoom to 100%:

Full album here; there are 30 shots of which 24 were critically sharp and 6 where the focus was slightly off:

[/url][/url]Thanks for help, after having a fiddle with the settings it doesn't look like I can achieve what I was trying to do. Will have to be done in post, the idea came from me looking back at some images I took on my last SLR a Fujifilm S5pro. The S5 & S2 (maybe others) all had great colours and also film emulation settings. The colours looked great and was trying get something similar (for some reason people think Fuji only did this in their mirrorless cameras, but it dated back to their slr's)

Well, now I know that the Tenba BYOB 9 doesn't hold the EM1 with 12-100 attached!
and will have room for the 7.5 too.
I use an E-M10ii

If you're happy to buy grey imports, Hdew are pretty good https://www.hdewcameras.co.uk/olympus-om-d-e-m1-mark-ii-body-black-5795-p.asp Still not far under a grand, but cheaper than other options.I would stay with Olympus because of my lenses... but for a grand or 3 I better master the em10 tracking
A bit of rambling anecdote. Just back from three weeks in Mexico, while on holiday with some exceptions I tend to use a camera to record holiday shots (to the best of my ability) rather than to accentuate the photography aspects. Gear-wise I carry the OM-10, using a Lowepro passport sling because of its non-camera bag look, I use a paracord wrist strap and hold the camera all the time it might be useful. The 12-40 lens sits on it almost all the time, I hate swapping out lenses unless necessary in the field, although in the bag I have the Panny 45-150 for long stuff and the 17mm 2.8 pancake for street photography, two filters for the 12-40, a ND grad and polariser. Means that I am making the best use of the compact factor of the m43, works for me anyhow, I appreciate it wouldn't for everyone.
Anyhow, early on, I had a nasty moment when I thought the 12-40 had broken, as the camera would only set MF. Now there are many who, reading that will immediately realise what had happened, it was early on and I was suffering from jet lag, alright? I didn't. It took me a good few hours to work out that, where I normally have the lens hood inverted on the lens, for and because it is REALLY sunny over there (30+ in the shade all the time....) I was actually using the little b****r. And, yes, of course, putting it into the bag I had knocked the focus ring into MF
At the risk of boring with holiday snaps, here are a couple, straight out the camera (except obv for a basic b&w using google)
Nice images btw
Oh I've been there, and I was just at home using the 12-40, scratching me head as to why it wouldn't AF ... it is easily knocked back to MF, as wonderful a feature as that it, really is great for precision close ups in particular, I kinda wish instead of the Fn button [which is useless to me on a Panasonic body] they put a button on the MF ring to lock it instead. Otherwise almost the perfect lens
Some lovely shots there. My travel bag sounds similar if it's a family holiday - Pen F, 12-40 plus polariser, 17mm 1.8 and 40-150 (cheap one). and I have the Lowepro passport too. Did 2 weeks in Japan with that set up plus a pull along carry on, no other luggage - only I used the Em5ii before I had Pen F.A bit of rambling anecdote.

I hadn't really noted the Shutter speed until you mentioned it. I will set to Shutter priority at around 1000 in future.
