So for a while now I've been a little afraid to use the electronic shutter with the a7r4 and 200-600 for moving objects. I think my fear was overblown. I used it a bunch last week and with moving objects it was no issue. In fact, I think the AF was better than it is with the mechanical shutter. I could be wrong. But with jumping dolphins, it's a bit luck to pretty much point and shoot and hope that the AF works. It seemed to work more often than not.

Snow Bunting and Red-tailed Hawk. The Snow Bunting is a lot more challenging, they are pretty shy so getting close to one can be difficult. We saw a group maybe 20 yards away and I just laid on the ground hoping they'd make there way to me, and this guy did for about 3 shots before the entire group got spooked and flew off.

Been awhile since I used this lens as my time has been spent in either dim light with the 600GM or playing with the new Canon toys.
But yesterday I brought it out and it continues to be the best value bird lens out there...this lens is so underpriced...

During most winters Pine Grosbeaks are non-existent in Wisconsin, occasionally they make their way into the state in big numbers. I spent Christmas at my in-laws cottage in north central Wisconsin where many northern finch species not normally seen in the state have made their way here.

Just got the a7R IV and 200-600mm lens. Really thrilled with the image quality and consistent focus. Here is one of my first images from the neighborhood park.
