I have an R7 and the 100-500L lens that are used for aviation photography. When it's on, the results are beautiful.
However, my experience with this combination is that the auto focus results are very inconsistent and highly annoying to say the least. In the same stream of 5 or 6 shots, at least one third to one half will be out of focus. The frame rate is 8 fps, EFCS is selected as is spot AF.
This is not my experience at the same settings with my T7i and Canon 7D II using the EF 100-400 L II. The focus is always spot on and consistent.
Both the R7 and the 100-500 are at the latest firmware versions.
Have others experienced similar results?
