Flat out this weekend. Cricket on Saturday, cup final football on Sunday.
Still struggling with a flu virus after a recent soaking, but you just have to push yourself on. Thankfully the weather played ball this weekend which made things a little easier.

So, you didn't get to cover the "other" big event over the weekend, at Buckingham Palace or Westminster Abbey.

Cheers

Sadly not, whilst I might have enjoyed the challenge, I'm more at home in the sporting environment.

With the North West 200 road races starting tomorrow, I managed to get access to a test day last week with two of the local teams checking their setups in preparation for the first big International road race of the season.

Many thanks David.

This is not a picture taken with the R3, but of the R3. There are sometimes discussions about how few pictures you can take on a single battery charge with a mirrorless camera.
This is what I accomplished today. Battery was fully charged when I started. All images with the EF-RF control ring adapter and the EF 70-200 mm f/2.8L IS II USM mounted. All images with stabilizer running in the lens and more than 99% with Servo AF on moving targets, so continuously operating the focusing group.

R3 in use at the International North West 200 road races held last week in Northern Ireland. Difficult lighting conditions with extremely harsh mid day sun and then setting evening sun with lots of shadows and super bright areas, but the camera did very well in holding targets with the people tracking engaged, where appropriate to do so. To give a perspective of the speeds involved, the top superbikes were hitting over 210mph on the public roads.
Next stop Isle of Man TT at the end of the month.

Last race of the day and these two were driving right on the limit the whole race, drifting in and out of the chicane each and every time - complete trust in each others driving.
