I use Olympus. Unless you want to get into the weeds on technical issues I'll just say that I like it because it is small and the lenses it uses are small too.

For wildlife photography portability is important and there are some software features that make it attractive as well. If you want more info PM me and we can have a discussion to any level of detail you're up to. I taught photography at the college level and worked in the industry as well. Fair warning, I have insane brand loyalty tho
