[QUOTE="photogramps, post: 377139, member: 30726"] I'm mostly doing it this way as well. With birds in flight you will always need AF-C but you might manage AF-S with a stationary bird that isn't moving much. Focus tracking with lock on is a toughie ... some togs claim that they get better AF results by having it off, the jury is still out on that for me but there is a feeling that it will keep the focus on track. However if the bird is in a group, e.g. feeding kites, or there are other objects (tree, house etc) in view, then without lock on the AF may get confused. [/QUOTE]
