It is perhaps my best bird action picture to date. :-) The X - T1 is a very well thought out camera and the picture quality from the X Trans sensor with the 55 - 200 zoom is exemplary. Despite the internet reviews raving about its continuous follow focus in my field trials in Africa I did not find it so great. About 1/3 of my vulture pictures were soft. If I had been using my Nikon I would have had a much higher rate of sharp(er) pictures. That aside - the camera was easy to use - responsive - and I am very pleased with the results. The EVF is huge and very clear and very easy to work with. And you won't get a hernia carrying the equipment along all day! As you are already a Fuji user you wouldn't have any trouble adapting to the menu either.
