[QUOTE="hark, post: 693135, member: 13196"] All of those are great - and I especially like how you put them together! My U1 is set up for Aperture Priority with Auto ISO and AF-C. However, I find myself using U2 exclusively for birding which is set up with Manual Mode, Auto ISO, and AF-C. That way I can change the shutter speed on the fly. Guess I'm a control freak. :beguiled: Since the +/- exposure compensation button works in Auto ISO, for me it's the fastest way to control everything. Admittedly though, I haven't used U1 (Aperture Priority with Auto ISO) enough to get a good feel for it. All of my bodies are set up with U1 and U2 this way. On my D750, I hardly ever use U1 or U2 since most of my pics are landscape or non-moving subjects. So it's simply Aperture Priority where I set my own ISO and use AF-S. But I like the ability to dial in U2 for those moments when something suddenly shows up. I haven't yet photographed an owl. The other day while at the park, I ran into a southern New Jersey photographer who sometimes has his images published in NJ Audubon magazine. He asked if I've ever seen a Great Horned Owl at the park. ::what:: No, I haven't. Prior to him catching up to where I stood, I noticed him shooting into the brush. When he told me about the owl, he mentioned (and motioned to where he had been shooting) that there was a run-down nest that a GH Owl previously used. I'm hoping to get out today to see if I can find the nest. He didn't think it was being used now since it is so run down. Have never heard of any Snowy Owls around here although I [I][B]might[/B][/I] have seen one a couple years ago. After shooting a number of exterior shots of my church, I walked around to the main entrance on the other side. Unfortunately I left my camera in my car. When I got near the doors, suddenly I noticed a very light colored, almost albino-looking, HUGE bird resting on the cross. I only ever saw it from behind so couldn't see its face. It took off headed in the opposite direction with an enormous wing span--much larger than any hawk I've ever seen. Might have been some type of owl. Kudos on your images. :) [/QUOTE]
