The RX10 MIV seems to me an ideal butterfly-catching rig. Its quick PD AF in continuous mode and close focusing ability have made it easier for me to capture these critters as they flit from flower to flower. Bursts of 24 fps feel almost like cheating - the ideal wing/antennae/proboscis position may be selected quickly from numerous frames taken a split second apart. Shooting info - Bued River, Rosario, La Union, Philippines, August 5, 2018, Sony RX10 Mark IV, 600 mm equiv., f/5.6, ISO 200, 1/1000 sec, continuous focus, manual exposure in available light, Uniqball UBH45 + Manfrotto 455B tripod, near full frame resized to 1575 x 1050.

Excellent shots with that cam Ka Mastah! As we get older, those super zooms become more and more attractive. Hehehe. Those shots are indeed beauties, but still, your mastery of the DSLR with those superb lenses just cannot be beat. :-)

Thanks, Ka Bobby. I can't believe I used to lug around the Sigmonster, hehehe. When the P1000 becomes available, my light "senior citizen" kit will be complete - 7DII + 400 DO II for BIF stills, RX10 MIV for BIF video/macro stills, and P1000 for long shots/video.
