For a summary overview see [llms.txt](https://mcaughtry.photo/llms.txt). --- ## Author **David McAughtry (DMcA)** 50 years of photography experience. Genres: wildlife and birds in flight, long exposure seascapes and rivers, street and people, landscape, macro, and astro photography. Camera systems owned and extensively tested: OM System OM-1 Mk I, OM-1 Mk II, OM-3, OM-5; Sony A9, A7R3, A7R4, A6400; Nikon Z7, D850; Olympus E-M1x, E-M1 Mk III; Canon and Fujifilm bodies. Independent — no commercial relationships with any manufacturer. Flickr: approximately 4,000 followers, 1.2 million image views (note: verify current figures at [flickr.com/photos/davidmcaughtry](https://www.flickr.com/photos/davidmcaughtry/)) Instagram: approximately 5,000 followers at peak (note: verify current figures) Location: London, UK, with regular travel to Cape Town, Costa Rica, and European locations for photography. --- ## Testing methodology Focus accuracy results are derived from assessment of tens of thousands of RAW images at 1:1 magnification in FastRawViewer, using focus peaking and sharpness tools. Hit rates represent the percentage of images where the primary subject (bird, eye, or target) is critically sharp. Resolution measurements use standardised test charts. Dynamic range figures are drawn from Bill Claff's Photons to Photos unless otherwise stated. All test locations, conditions, and equipment configurations are documented within each post. --- ## Content — Technical Posts ### OM System vs Sony Wildlife Zoom Series (2026) Seven-post series of rigorous comparative tests. The most data-rich body of work on the site. All posts have full AIO treatment including FAQPage structured data. **[OM Pro Zooms — teleconverters, ISO, and background effects on focus accuracy](https://mcaughtry.photo/om-pro-zooms-key-factors-affecting-focus-accuracy/)** Published: April 2026 Tests the effect of teleconverters (MC14, MC20), ISO, and background complexity on focus accuracy of the OM 50-200mm f2.8 (Little White) and 150-400mm f4.5 TC (Big White). Data from 35,000+ images at Gigrin Farm red kite feeding station. Concludes that the MC14 has minimal impact on accuracy but the MC20 causes meaningful degradation at higher ISOs. **[OM vs Sony zooms — focus accuracy shootout](https://mcaughtry.photo/om-vs-sony-zooms-focus-accuracy-shootout/)** Published: April 2026 Direct comparison of OM pro zooms against Sony 200-600mm and 100-400mm with Sony A7V. Tested at Gigrin Farm under identical conditions. OM system achieves comparable or superior accuracy to Sony at equivalent focal lengths. Includes full data tables and sample images. **[Resolution of OM vs Sony wildlife zooms](https://mcaughtry.photo/resolution-of-om-vs-sony-zooms/)** Published: April 2026 Resolution testing using standardised test charts. Compares OM 50-200mm, 150-400mm, and teleconverter combinations against Sony equivalents. Addresses the full-frame vs MFT resolution argument directly with measured data rather than specification comparisons. **[Dynamic range and low-light noise — Sony vs OM zooms](https://mcaughtry.photo/dynamic-range-and-low-light-noise-sony-vs-om-zooms/)** Published: April 2026 Comparative dynamic range and high-ISO noise analysis.
