The k3 is stupidly fast .... almost unnecessarily fast.

To the point of how many images of the same thing do you need ..... ??? Then being unable to keep up with Af can leaveyou with dozens of OOFimages.

I often shoot subjects like airshows, motor sports, birds in flight, etc. The subjects can change very fast indeed. I use burst mode, and "focus priority" to try to ensure that the photos I get are in focus.

I would like a camera with a frame rate at least 10 fps. Yes, I also need lenses that focus fast, a good AF system, and a buffer that clears fast. (And plenty of luck!)

Pentax K-3II plus Pentax D FA 150-450mm lens.
