You are correct in your statement that the burst rate is glacial in RAW. I wouldn't really call it a burst rate. It's around one shot per second. Now, that is not an issue for me, I am more than happy shooting in fine quality JPG. I know this gives less options in post photo editing, but I don't do much of that. Just a touch of sharpening here and there.I tend to shoot in aperture mode a lot, switching to Shutter priority to freeze movement on occasions. I also find that the Auto mode is pretty good in difficult lighting situations. If I really want a recored shot, I try my own settings first, then rattle a few off in Auto just to try and optimism my chances of a record shot.I really am not a photographer concentrating on wildlife pictures, I'm a nature enthusiast that carries a camera, and this camera is ideal for what I do.I'm sure you will enjoy your purchase and look forward to seeing some of your pictures on here.Here are a few more I took the other day. All with the G3X except the Tree Sparrows which I digiscoped.<a href="http://moochersmoor.blogspot.co.uk/2016/04/around-locality.html" target="_blank">http://moochersmoor.blogspot.co.uk/2016/04/around-locality.html</a></blockquote>
