I too have had issues with single point focus with the D500. As Steve Perry points out (in the video linked by Dangerspouse), the size of the AF points are smaller on the D500 than on previous DX bodies. Therefore, focusing with single point doesn't have the high focus lock rate of other DX bodies. And I can certainly attest to that. When a subject doesn't have high contrast, quite often my D500 cannot lock focus with single point. Just yesterday I shot several frames of a Great White Egret while using single point focus. Not one is in focus even though the bird was stationary.</p></blockquote><p></p>
