+17 pts“That 200-600 is a solid lens. I use it too. But you're right to struggle, and it's not you. You're fighting the A6600's AF. It's just not as fast as the newer bodies for BIF. That's the honest reality. Two things to try: 1. That lens *needs* sunlight. At f/6.3, the AF hunts like crazy on dark days. 2. Don't use "Wide" focus. It's just guessing. Try **Tracking: Expand Spot**. Lock onto the bird *before* it moves. It gives the camera a fighting chance. And don't believe the hype you see online. My keeper rate is tiny. I'll shoot 300+ photos to get maybe 30 "keepers." That's just the grind.”
