I did a little write up for a new owner that may be helpful. Watch the video and how the For pre-focuses. You will miss less shots.

Great, thanks for the additional info. I will look into it

Not sure what your previous Canon experience is but keep in mind I wrote that for a person coming from a Sony, so a huge learning curve.

To me one of the most important things is how to control AF when it is not cooperating. Get your desired subject quickly back into focus. Jared also shows his Expansion AF method in this Sony vs R3 shootout. Minutes 2:30 to 6:00. 3:10 has a very good example.

Don't Look Up! The very fabric of captured light is noise.
