A few from Sunday's visit to the Basel zoo:

Nephew's travel ball team. Amateur here, but I'm certainly having a blast with this camera.

I find that I almost always have to shoot with -.3/-.7ev or my shots are over-exposed. Given that I often shoot in poor light (either too bright or too dim) and birds are seldom posed where you'd like them, it may just be something to live with. This, however, is a shot from today -- cropped and sized only -- of a static duck at a reasonable distance and in good light that looks dingy and blown to me. I can save it in PP, of course, but I get tired of doing it every time. I talked to Nikon, but, because I am using a Tamron lens, they would not offer any constructive help.

Anyone else seeing this -- or just me expecting too much?

This was shot with my D500 using my Nikon 70-200mm shot at 200mm with a Nikon 2x teleconverter on it with the camera in 1.3 crop mode and I still cropped the picture. Detail looks pretty good to me. I was sitting in a parking lot and noticed this little guy on a bulkhead at the edge of a bayou that was near me. No sharpening was done on this image.

Which metering mode are you using? I normally shoot BIF with spot metering,if that is not working for you, try highlight metering if the D500 has that option.
