[QUOTE="Marc57850, post: 837872, member: 64525"] Thanks Robin. I just contact Nikon about my issue and here is the answer and resolution. This behavior can be linked to two main points: The use of the [B]AF-ON[/B] button combined with the “Focus” priority in the autofocus setting [B]a2[/B]. If the camera does not confirm focus, it will block the shutter release. In [B]Focus Shift[/B] mode, the camera automatically adjusts the focus plane. If the initial focus is too close or the shift width is too large, the camera quickly reaches its focus limit, which interrupts the sequence. To optimize your shots and ensure a complete sequence, here are a few recommendations: Switch to[B] manua[/B]l focus before starting the sequence. Set [B]a2[/B] to “[B]Shutter Release[/B]” (rather than “Focus”). [B]Decrease the shift width[/B] if the subject is close. I[B]ncrease the number of images[/B] to cover the entire desired depth. Set the initial focus on the closest element to be photographed. Recommended configuration example: [B]Mode: M Focus: Manual Number of images: 20 Shift width: 3 Interval: 2 s Exposure smoothing: OFF Silent mode: OFF Tripod: Yes VR: OFF[/B] I tried following those recomandation and everything is working well.
