The Olympus OMD EM5 mark I is a great camera. I doubt that I will be able
to get birds in flight pictures, but that is not the intended purpose
anyways. I love the in body 5 way stability. Don't have to worry about
image stability in the lens. When I am able to afford it, I'll get the
prime lenses and forget that I had this dilemma.

Cheers...

 The
  Canon mirrorless I have, will remain the casual camera, I guess.


 I have used a 7D for several years now and I have to say that it is a
 most excellent body. I'm told the Mark II is even better. Go for it. I
 use a mirrorless when I have more relaxed shoots like food photos. My
 50mm f/1.8 lens is pretty much always on the EOS M for this purpose.
