Page 90 has most of the info but having set camera on in Menus 51 point dynamic area AF (even tells you for birds!) I went down to Titchfield Haven Bird Reserve yeat again and did not do much better. I could not even seem to be able to get the 810 out of AF-S single servo AF mode (so easy to do on previous Nikon DSLRs)
Back to the drawing board and if all else fails read the instruction book yet again! Page 39 tells all!!!!!
The AF-M focus has a little button in middle when pressed in you can activate all the auto focus commands using front sub command dial and or rear main command dial.
I now go to reserve full of confidence of my new found ability to us my camera! Dull day but seemed to be working a bit better better. Perhaps the max f no on 80-400 lens of f5.6 is showing slight limitions of this lens in poor light compared with the much higher priced f2.8 lenses?
Two days ago fine weather. All working well and getting the picture I wanted at long last!!!
Avocets now with very newly hatched young! QED?
