Nice images

when you write, “Tracking AF (all area) with subject set to "none,” I assume you had the camera in face tracking mode????

Yep, but I think it is more object tracking that face tracking.

Interesting! May I ask which Firmware version you have on your R5?

I really don't want to reopen that old discussion (there were enough heated threads on that), but I recently upgraded from 1.4 to 1.6 and indeed noticed a considerable decrease in generic object tracking performance (only briefly tested on a water bottle on a table, a framed picture on a wall,..).

Since I don't need that kind of generic tracking for what I'm shooting, it doesn't matter to me personally, but I'm curious nonetheless.

And really fantastic pictures, thanks for sharing! 😊

I'm using 1.6.0.

As I was very disappointed with generic object tracking in FW 1.5.x but 1.6.0 showed a significant improvement (still not that good as 1.4.x). With this firmware generic object tracking is again acceptable for me.

Br, Paweł.
