Time for some picture from my first few trips with the R5. At this stage, I am trying to learn the camera and its capabilities, so I am less interested in composition and more in seeing what the camera does in certain scenarios.
To see how to the edge the AED AF would track - turns out it is much further than decent framing would encourage. So impressive:
Change of background - my 5DIV would struggle with this, choosing to switch focus to the background - no such issue with the R5.
Pulled camera up quickly to see how fast the AF acquired lock on a subject flying into clutter. It locked and tracked so fast, SO FAST!!
Full frame of a butterfly in very windy conditions - exposure and focus challenges - met with ease
Crop of the above image to show how sharp it is. The only comment I had was that the AED thought a spot on the wing was the eye and refused to let go of that in a few more tests.
Tiny energetic bees on moving flowers, overcast skies. Again, AF locked and held with ease.
And finally for now, an actual attempt to capture a half decent shot and stop thinking about testing
I am still learning the Flickr bit, so the images seem to look slightly degraded when linked here as to how they look when full size. But hopefully you can get a flavour of what they look like
