Snowy Owl BIF video - R5 + RF100-500 L
9

I'm slowly making a bit of progress in the video department as a new Canon mirrorless user after 12 years using Nikon DSLRs.

This is the longest flight sequence I've gotten so far this year as these Snowy Owls are so hard to get close  enough to. This video was taken from 200 meters away and the image has been magnified 2 times by placing a 4K120p clip on a 1080p timeline.

What I'm happy about is that the R5 locked onto focus immediately and kept the focus for the entire time except for a couple of seconds near the end when the owl is gliding  inches above the ground, but then the focus nicely and smoothly recovers.
