Hey guys
I had an opportunity to perform this test at home with my new model. He's very small, fast, unpredictable and ginger
His name is Manol.
Here are some pics I took of him two days ago:

The conditions were not very good - one light bulb, a red sofa, an orange cat, ISO 8000, shutter speed - 1/100 to 1/200, f-stop - 2.4 with the 70mm Limited, AF mode - AF-C.
I managed about 35-40% success rate with about 1-1.5 fps and I think it's far more than I expected and very close to what any other camera might be able to achieve.
Yes, if I had used AF-S and had selected carefully the time to make each shot, I would have had a far better success rate. But this was not the point of the test - I wanted to just press the shutter button and fire away, giving most of the control to the camera and just trying to compose the shots in the meantime
.
Please share your thoughts, I'll be happy to read them
Thanks!
