Am afraid I haven't mastered BIF yet. :needsahug:


BIF are easy with the D500 and right AF settings, as once it locks on and you keep the birds more or less in frame it seems to keep focus.

It was BeeEaters I was photographing last year. Only see them for two weeks maximum as they fly back to Africa.
As with many things Nikon, mastering the AF system is harder than mastering panning but once done it does indeed make capturing birds relatively easy.


Like the flash system as well. I prefer to use PocketWizard system and manually control via the TT5 and AC3 controller.
I try not to use flash, I can push either D3 to 3200 and the D4 to 6400 without unacceptable noise. If forced to use flash I have a set of controllers that allow the use of most flashguns. It wouldn't be worth getting more SB900/910s.

I agree with you the teasers are a little tortuous.
Too kind of you to arrange for me to test. I was looking at the European Championships in Berlin and I think I saw one being used by a photographer.
I will see what the exact specifications are before I part with my cash but I would prefer to have a totally Nikon system even though I have a somewhat large investment in the Fuji system. If I decide against the Nikon mirrorless then I will get another Fuji XT2 and possibly an XH1 for the IBIS but we shall see. I tend to think that will be an unlikely scenario as the Nikon will be very good I am sure. Nikon is very conservative but also very concerned with getting it right. This will be a Nikon F for mirrorless in Nikon system.

While I am sure Nikon will craft an outstanding product, especially after the insights from the Article I posted on their sensor labs. This will be the first iteration of a completely new product. Hopefully it won't be a one off like the DF and other dead end products which were promising but didn't progress, UW?

I dont think that will happen here, so I feel we may have the beginning of a line of wonderful cameras, inferring that there will be room for improvement as the product matures. Little used features perhaps dropped and shortcomings improved upon.

I just wonder if this may be a case for wait and see, maybe hire one before leaping in with a lot of cash for a totally new product. Although if unsuitable I guess there will be many out there waiting to snap up a bargain little used example... No matter any foibles.

WEX give 30day no quibble returns. Should be able to evaluate it in that time. ;-)

It's an idea but I think it unfair to do that unless one can afford the product and is reasonably certain of keeping it. I could probably afford it but I think it very unlikely that I would want to keep it so I won't be taking that route.

Perhaps I should have used more than one? ;-);-);-)

One day I will stop sending things back and keep something. WEX have got 3 grand of my money on account that they won't return, so I will have to buy something to get it.
