Wow, you have got to see this just posted video of Fro with the R8. I watched the first few minutes and was completely blown away by the auto focus demonstrated in real world contexts. Amazing!

Not a surprise because it has the R6Mii focusing system.

The kind of battery the R8 has to use is what sort of cripples it for professional (sports) work, considering the absence of IBIS can partially be mitigated by lenses with IS.

I’ve been using the LP-E17 batts in a number of cameras for a few years now. You just learn to keep a spare or two handy. Never caused an issue for me.
