[QUOTE="Bingo76, post: 824688, member: 53631"] Wow - thanks for all the advice - this is a super helpful/active forum :) Here are some images I took, along with my thoughts. Obviously some of these may be down to technique rather than hardware, but all feedback greatly appreciated. I'm trying to move from a spray and prey technique! First off, one I'd consider good/acceptable: [ATTACH type="full"]410828[/ATTACH] Now on this one - I haven't got the lighting right - too much brightness / shadow. Not sure if my technique, but I have a nagging feeling the auto mode on the d5000 would have resulted in a better pic (and I'm not sure what to tweak on the d500 to compensate): [ATTACH type="full"]410829[/ATTACH] The next two were taken in sequence. First one in focus, and the next one (which could have been a great pic) just a little out of focus: [ATTACH type="full"]410830[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]410831[/ATTACH] And finally a random out of focus shot. Not sure why, but I had a lot of these: [ATTACH type="full"]410832[/ATTACH] All of these were taken on P shooting mode, Qc release, AF-C Grp focus mode - with a Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G IF-ED VR lens [/QUOTE]
