Thanks again for the R5 Guide. Your method for the 3 different selections of AF, is way more simple than always fumbling with the 3 tiny back buttons!
It was good to see you at the Stick Marsh, this morning. I made another 600+ photos. It is harder to decide which ones to keep, when most all of them are in focus. Layton—all the best!

Recently, I went to Conowingo with the R5 and was incredibly impressed. It nailed the af almost all of the time with the exception of one dive where it was in focus on the descent went oof during the strike and quickly regained focus. It was much better than the 5dmkiv and 1dxmkii. The only challenge now is culling the hundreds of in focus images.
