Canon R3 Users: Are you experiencing (any) focusing issues? I am!

Rarely happens to me and I shoot birds often in poor light with the 100-500 or my 500ii.

for me the AF tracking is light years ahead of my old 1dx and this ensures I capture images I wouldn’t even have tried with my 1dx.

so to sum up: I find I can set up my R3 to achieve equal if not faster AF as my 1dxs on static objects and when tracking it smokes the old bodies. I have many BBF shots where I didn’t ever focus on the bird. R3 did it all on auto.
