      Stormchasing must also be interesting for photography. But I guess it's also kinda dangerous without proper knowledge

    I use back button focus on my Sony A7iii and I love it. Thanks for the video

    Thanks for the info. I have a Nikon . Do you use single point or also dynamic area when using back button focus when taking pictures of (fast) moving animals? Thanks in advance for your answer

      I used Nikon for many years until moving to Canon in 2022. I try to use the smaller AF area I can, at the smaller the area, the faster and more accurate the autofocus. If the subject is moving in a very random way you have no choice but to use a big area, while if you know exactly where it will be in the frame (if it's running straight at you for example) you can even use a single point. Hope it helps!

    Great video mate, I've been using this technique very often for street photography too

      thanks! Sure that technique applies to every dynamic scenario with a mix of still and moving subjects. I also use it a lot in my commercial photoshoots. Cheers!

    Can't believe we are still seeing video's on BBF in 2024. Mirrorless brings a different dynamic even at entry level.

      Of course there's the option of setting AF tracking mode and leave all the control to the camera. I find that new AF tracking systems combined with BBF provide the best in every situation, as there are cases where automatic tracking alone doesn't work. But of course it's a personal preference. What system do you use?
