Do you know...I had forgotten it was only 20mp. Got it in my head it was 24mp. :doh:

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.
