[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 560690, member: 6277"] I shoot bird in flight all the time. I generally shoot in Manual mode F8 @ 1/2000 sec with Auto ISO so that takes care of the changing light while shooting . Generally I am shooting against bright sky so I use Exposure Compensation +1 or +2 when against bright sky since the birds would be underexposed. Snowy Egrets are tricky though. Most of the time when I see them they are stalking around the pond edges so I have to change to -1 or -2 to compensate for them. I shoot the first one and look at the histogram quickly and compensate as I need to. I am lucky in that the D750 had a lot of room to bring up shadow detail. [/QUOTE]
