    Default Squirrel running and jumping ...

    Hi folks ... trying to get the Squirrels while they are running at me .
    Can tell you that is very difficult , at least for me , even if using the latest Canon gear as far as camera goes .
    The R3 is struggling to acquire focus and lock on when these little critters start to run , and for sure the operator also playing a roll in that game .
    More than 80 % of the frames are more or less out of focus , sometimes drastically .
    The bad light might also play a role .... and maybe my AF configuration , well who knows exactly .
    I am kinda disappointed about the new toy , maybe I expected too much as these little critters are not easy to track when they move around the undergrowth . But even on a flat track in the park ... the AF is struggling .
    Well will need more time and more practice to get better results , I guess .
