Thank you dear friend. The processing is "hard" but I found it to some extent appropriate

Not a photo so I hope no-one minds too much. The FM travel forum is not a place many visit often however if you've been to Lofoten I'd really appreciate your comments / opinion here :

If you are into bird or fast action wildlife photography and you want to catch the action at peak moments then, yes. I told myself over and over again, I do not need 20fps but and frankly, if I select only the keepers from a burst of 50-60 images of so, I do not need that many but you are virtually "guaranteed" getting the peak moments from the sequence. What you end up getting is probably only 5-6 keepers but each time you look at them, they put a smile on your face. I caught the owl from that sequence a few times with his eyes close a few times or his wings covering this face or not completely spread out, etc. He lost his grip with his left claw because he closed his claw too early, he tried to balance himself by flapping his wings again. He didn't get a 10 from me because he didn't stick the landing
. All those actions were caught in the 20fps burst..... Do I need them? No, not really but it would be nice to have a sequence like that in a different but action-pack scenario.
And yes, I still have two copies of the A7r II for slower pace photography activities

I'd say so just about. As soon as they come out with a 400/2.8 or 500/4 it'll be game over!
In the mean time, I hope we'll see a 200/2 GM. Think I'd sell all my Canon gear then.
Congrats on the new camera Josh. Do you still have the 400/2.8 to test on it?

Very impressive shot of the owl landing!. What focus mode do you use for a shot like this?

Our cat looks a like a fat version of Mike Reid's cat.
Hazel has nothing but contempt for dogs, especially our little yorkies. She's basically a cat supremacist. I don't approve, mind you. I'm just doing the work of a photo-journalist capturing her amidst an evil cat-supremacy/little-dog-terrorizing planning session.

Thank you, JayT! Yes, I still do and that's my go-to long Canon lens and I really love that lens. It would be hard for me to sell that. Although I am looking forward to Sony E mount lens that can replace that but I shudder each time I think about that upcoming lens.

Thank you, Dale! I have tried two modes so far; the lock-in center is good if you know or at least anticipate that the owl would take off and the camera can follow and focus the owl for you. But the wide angle mode using all PDAF points seems to be my favorite now. As long as nothing comes in between or more importantly, you can keep the target in the frame, then the camera will be able to pull off a sequence of well-focused images. So far, I have had pretty good luck with that mode. Yes, that owl was caught using that mode. I also got a sequence where the owl came from my right side flying towards that branch. The camera caught the owl mid-air and followed it all the way to the branch. However, the camera is still too new to me to be able to say for sure.

Well that's a tough act to follow! Maybe a pic that has cold water?
