This Arctic Tern, it travels from the antartica to the countries around the nortern pole at the start of summer, a travel distance of over 30k kilometers or around 20k miles. It is one the fastest and most agile birds out there.

As you see it is actually flying and the image of course was taken with EOS RP.

RP. Bird in flight. Doesn’t turn quick though.

I think the bigger point is that you work within your cameras capabilities. Using the RP, I know when there really isn’t a benefit to trying to track. So I use zone tracking and put the zone in frame where I want it. Or I use spot focus and track by following manually. Hit rate is still way above my Rebel.

And I’m not a high frame rate guy anyway. The M6II we have does 14 fps. We rarely use it. Sometimes we use 7 fps.
