[@Verde88]

There is the Preburst mode for S5ii now

[@ianfalck]

Whitch af settings did you use on the s5ii ? Great video

[@elimajewski3384]

R7 has more pixels than s5ii, this is why the pics made with r7 seem sharper.

[@LukeBrownFigmentoFilms]

Yeah, thats one reason, noise would also be a contributing factor too.

[@adhwayidkichu7893]

will the s5ii with sigma 150-600 be good enough for bird photography

[@LukeBrownFigmentoFilms]

Hi, I'm currently testing that lens and will try to get a video up as soon as possible so make sure to hit the sub button to keep notified!

[@Behnam_Moghaddam]

this comparison (in my mind) screams:
G9ii + 50-200 + 1.4xTC
:)

[@LukeBrownFigmentoFilms]

Now that's a tasty set up! Or the 200mm 2.8 prime!
