    How can you possibly capture a bug flying in mid air? Thats amazing

    Very fast shutter speed, to start with, and I’d guess dialing in the expected focus ahead of time while watching the leaf get cut so that when it takes off you can capture it, maybe combined with a high resolution wider shot that you crop and/or multiple photos taken rapidly.

    I'd add to that with modern mirrorless cameras have amazing fast autofocus and can focus while taking a shot.

    I do some photography myself and I am an amature but taking a well focused image of a small bird in flight feels boarderline impossible.
