For optimal results I use 3 to 5 fps or no burst at all and shoot each time I desire as following the tracking. In this pratice I get 90% tack sharp shots. In bursts around 60 to 70%.

Using low frames per second and no bursting is basically telling folks to leave their cameras in AF-S. I mainly do wildlife photography, street, and family portraits. It has been a disappointment with AF-C. I started out with the X-T20 and now have the X-T3. Face/eye-autodetect is much improved but the improvements in tracking weren't ground breaking.

Fuji needs to simplify the autofocus options for their users. I don't have time to keep switching between custom AF-C configs every time a different bird pops in the frame. I've tried every possible combination and the keeper rate is low. Also, they need to improve their autofocus algorithms and not just increase processing power.

Exactly right - it shouldn’t be a case of trial and error with a myriad menu options to get decent AF-C in 2022
