Thanks Mike. He is a lovely dog and that's most of the work done right there.

Thanks Susan. No, not even CIF (Catch In Focus). The FA 150mm is about the fastest focusing lens I have for this system and it simply cannot cope with a dog running towards me. However DxO did put the Z as top of the class for 'sports' and it wins on the quality of high ISO images allowing fast shutter speeds in lowish light and providing usable results. I had many shots that were of no use whatsoever due to missing focus, but what was in focus was beautifully captured at ISO 1600 - 6400, 1/800th - 1/1500th. Just I prefer those that have the subject's face in focus rather than his tail, or the grass where he stood half a second ago.
