Catching a bird in flight with my t3i had as much to do with luck as it had with the camera's focusing ability. I've taken scores of blurry big fat Canadian geese at the "duck pond" nearby.
Needless to say I was a bit shocked when my new 70D was able to lock onto this butterfly fluttering about 20-30 feet in the air.
And the white speck near the butterfly? Iridium flare? I don't know what else it could be....
