CANON R7 - Bird Photography Setting

I am sharing some of prefer setting for Bird Photography after 2/3 months on field using R7 with CANON RF 100500. As the current camera some with AI animal detection and eye detection focus. It is time to change some of our DLSR AF methods. The current AI AF solve many of Bird photography concerns e.g. fast moving birds, which very challenge to have the "eye" focus bird in flight, which require to be fly within "zone" so the camera can focus and track it. But as for now, using whole screen to detect the bird (make the bird detect faster and easier) complex environment which difficult to be focus on bird head/eye. with current AI as long as bird detect by the "AF zone" eye will be lock focus and track *this also apply for R3 which having same AF concept but not R5/6 having slight different AF system CANON R7 : pictures sample(update 20220914) https://liewwkphoto.com/blog/?p=10009 #CANONR7 #BirdingwithCANONR7 #CANONR7BirdPhotographySetting
