I just picked up a R6 II (since it went on sale), primarily to take better pictures of my dog... My 5DS autofocus can't even hope to keep up, and the ergonomics of my M6 II are less than ideal for this kind of thing. It felt like time to get a new camera. I'm using all adapted EF lenses for now.

Took her out to play fetch in some dandelions yesterday, figured that would be a good first test. I need to fiddle with the AF settings, because my keep-rate was still not as high as I expected (expectations based likely on hype from optimistic youtubers). It may be that my EF 70-300L just can't keep up with a dog running at full speed towards the camera. I got some nice images, but there were plenty that missed autofocus. Still better than any of my other cameras, though.
