I am just posting this for, hopefully, the benefit of others. I have been searching for a good motion detection solution for wildlife photography. I have a Canon T6i, but alas, no Magic Lantern. I saw I could buy older camera bodies online for reasonable prices. I bought a Canon T3(1100D) but found that the motion detection via Frame Differential didn't work. I sold that body and picked up a Canon T1i (500D) the motion detection and the frame differential worked but the auto-focus did not. I sold that and bought a Canon T3i (600D) and it is works great. Motion Detection, frame differential and auto-focus.
The moral of the story, if you need these features, I would recommend the Canon T3i. I know everyone uses Magic Lantern for different purposes, but I couldn't find any good information on what works for my particular need.
