Fire performers practicing at night with no ambient light except the fire. Shot in live view with AF tracking on a monopod with the 85/1.4D lens.
After watching auto ISO and A priority for awhile I just set 6400 ISO and shot some M, but mostly A.
The AF kept getting fooled by the fire, so I was constantly choosing the focus point on the touch screen with my left hand while controlling the rest with my right. About half the time it would lock on the performer, keepers were @ 60%. Some of that was definitely user error and I think I can improve the keeper rate with some fine tuning of settings and technique. Still pretty good performance and it was lots of fun.
