We had our owl shoot yesterday both using our D500s and 80-400mm Lenses in 6 hours we shot over 400 images each with hardly a failure in focus sharpness or exposure! Rain came at end of day so we wqill go back again soon to get some flight pixs. We can not fault the way our equipment worked. Malcolm will report later. Light was dull with showers so most of my pixs were 1250ISO 1/400 sec F5.6-F8 Attachment: Tawney1910.jpg (Downloaded 74 times)

Looks like you had a fine day out and got some fine images. Shame about the rain, it lookslike the pair of owls got fairly drenched. What AF settings are you using. I have found that I am using AFC/S with Group, most successfully. This seems to work as well for me as AFS with single spot in most of my other Nikons.
