  1. Yes
Got a rodeo on weekend trusty R5i that nearly overheats every rodeo nowadays and R6ii.

Start with R5 during afternoon and switch to R6as darkness descends.

BBF on both 70-200 RF 2.8L

Guy suggested I should be using pre capture maybe im stubborn or to old to learn etc etc, but as chute man pulls rope tight I start clicking often a few images before bull or bronc comes out. Fire away hopefully get the kick done and dusted 10 seconds on or sooner.

I cant see how pre capture will help me alot. Oh high speed mechanical.

One slight change this week first time wifey will be 90 degrees to me at the side of chutes, so im on side she will be front on straight across arena with R6ii to start with and 100-400 USM lens of course tis 5.6 so might struggle well before dark. Will check for spiders and cobwebs before use must be nearly 2 years I reckon.

cheers all any advice welcome
