I'm new to the A7R ivA - Thanks for having this forum...

I'm primarily interested in photographing birds in flight. A week ago I received an A7R ivA and am trying to figure out best settings. I got the Sony FE 70-300mm SEL70300G F4.5-5.6 G OSS lens.

Thanks! Mark Smith is one of the very best birds in flight photogs so I'm sure his setup hints are worth following.
