At Gatorland, Orlando or Kissimmee, FL
Sequence of 8 shots taken with A9 + 24-105 G OSS at F4, 105mm, Auto-ISO (4000 for all but the first, taken at 5000 iso), 1/2500s, +2EV, distance less than 4 yards. Cropped and resized (original is 6.7MP).
AF was set at Tracking Zone, but I see focus switched two times from back to front to back swallow during the <1s sequence, I have yet to understand focus modes
When I got my a9, I took it to the Tulsa Zoo to test it out with my 100-400. Didn't expect to run across a hummingbird, but I'll take what I can get when I can get it
