Hello...

My passion is my Olympus MFT cameras, but I own a nice Canon Rebel T5i with 18-55 STM kit lens and I’ve ordered a 55-250 IS STM and 24 STM lens for it.

None of my Olympus MFT cameras have PDAF and they are really, really bad at continuous tracking autofocus.

About five years ago, I owned a Canon Rebel XT (EOS 350D) and gave it to my daughter. She shoots rodeos with it and gets fantastically good shots on running horses.

I have a much more modern Canon Rebel and better lenses .

What settings or tips can I get for shooting rodeos using my Canon T5i and STM lenses.

Any help is much appreciated and certainly needed.

IDK - but these photographs are beautiful - thank you for sharing.
