Interesting observation.  Never thought of the EVF synchronizing with a

As a student of aerodynamics you’d probably enjoy watching another species, the Black-chinned Hummingbird, though the viewfinder of the “Leica” a7rIII which has a viewfinder with a refresh rate almost perfectly synchronized with this species’ wingbeats.  It’s like watching the wings beat in slo-mo.
