Just letting you guys know that the 50-200mm f2.8-3.5 non-SWD can focus
pretty fast with the E-M1 w/ver. 3 firmware.  My son's birthday was 2 days
ago and I got to put tracking focus to a test . . .  running kids!
Here are several shots in sequential order of my son running with friends:

Certainly seems to work. ;-)

But the 50-200 ship sailed for me eleven years ago, when it wouldn't focus in a reasonable amount of time for me on an E-1 (and sometimes not at all.), compared to similar lenses on a 300D.

I'm in love with the 75-300 M.Zuiko native for µ4/3 without adapter.
