The weakness of adapters is often rather slow AF. How do you find AF speed to be with this combination?

For this bird video I manually focused on the subject, I haven't tried the autofocus much.  This is mostly just a filming rig for me.  I lockdown the camera on a tripod and keep autofocus / IS off while filming.

I do exhibit print photographs locally and 16 megapixels falls below my standards for still images.  I may switch over to the Canon M50 in time as I see import models going for under $500.  Seems like a good value for 4K video, superior dynamic range, 24 megapixels, and native Canon autofocus.  90% of my lenses are for the EF mount.
