Wondering how it goes with birds coming towards you rather that going across the frame?

honestly probably not as good...but i don't know, i've yet to use anything that can really lock on to a peregrine coming at you

Yeah, me neither, not from Canon anyway, lol.

But for birds of more mortal speeds - and aircraft- wondering how a 90D +500 native would perform vs a 5D4 with 500 and 1.4x ??

Wow, great shot. It going sideways to the camera would help with focusing.

WOW!!!

A few recent shots of a mantis. The 90D still does great job for macro shots

Incoming!!!!!

It was really dark.. I was trying to check my exposure and looked up and almost got hit!!!! Wow!!!

Here are a few, not the best but workable. The grackle and gull were "Suprise!" quick shots.

That is quite an interesting pic! Action and art.

loving this action capture..great detail to go with the sequence..

Hi, new to this forum. I've tried to look at most of the posts for the 90D. I've had one for about 6 weeks, replacing a T3i that I had for 10 years and a Sigma 100-400 for a couple weeks. It tended to rear focus at every setting. I got the dock and with some adjustment it seems to be very close. The 18-55 f/4-5.6 kit lens was close and required to micro adjustments. It was a bit of a re-learning curve with the 90D. The first few pictures were horrible. My older lenses didn't seem very sharp. But I have a Tamron 70-300VC that I tried with a 1.4x and 2.0x Kenko TC's and it autofocused with either at 400mm. It did require good light but worked. The Sigma lens will not work with either, no communication error.

Seems a lot of people are shooting birds. I noticed no one that I found was using a red-dot sight on their cameras. That improved getting on target quickly. I can frame Jupiter in about a second at full zoom. It has to be a 1 to 1 no magnification sight. You dial it in at long distance with the camera on a tripod, then hold the camera a foot or so away from your face keeping both eyes open to shoot, even in live mode when you can't see the LCD.

Here are a couple shots with the 90D in P mode. Due to virus, I've been staying at home and just shooting whatever I can see in the yard. I'm trying to work the bugs out of the camera and out of me. It seems even with the correct exposure, shadows get underexposed (easily corrected but shouldn't have to.)

Sigma 100-400 at 400mm. f/10, 1/800, ISO 160
