Sounds like you are having a testing time in France. Hope that you get home safely.

If you want help with the Fuji then I can provide it. Just message or email me.
I can truly say that the quality from the D800 is matched by the results from the XT2. I havent done an identical sample shoot but where I use them together I eventually end up using the Fuji in preference. For BIF then the D500 is unbeatable as the speed of AF is exceptional.

I've been doing a Graham and shooting avocets. Trying to get right settings on XT2 for decisive moment.....

Certainly got it right here.
Perfect drop.

 Super pixs I love waders great subject. I always wind in -0.7 even with the D500 to retain highlight detail in sun with white birds.

 Interesting I tend to use -0.3 in winter and -0.7 in summer, here in Spain. When I was in UK it was -0.3 in summer and 0 in winter.

 Eric, For Avocets I tend to set a shutter speed of 1/800 or faster

 Quite right Ian or even higher they move their heads very fast as they sweep the water feeding. Pushing ISO helps a lot with our modern DSLRs

I think they were at 1/1250 but will check. Finding my feet with the Fuji ...but domestic problems getting in the way of further outings. :whip:

 This is a recent Avocet from our local Titchfield Haven Reserve on a dull day only just holding highlight detail with -0.7 EV!

Nikon D500 with Nikon AF-S 80-400mm Plus x1.4=550mm ISO 800 AF-C f13 1/800 sec
