[QUOTE="Woodyg3, post: 824715, member: 24569"] Here is my feedback for sports with the D500, hope it's helpful: You need a faster shutter speed. The blurring in these shots is almost entirely motion blur. Get out of P mode and use shutter priority, or take the next step forward and learn to go in manual mode. Try to pan with the subject as best you can to further reduce motion blur. For something like rugby, I would use 1/1000 or faster. In good light there is no reason not to go up to 1/2000 or faster. Group focus is a good choice for sports, as is continuous AF. "Spray and Pray" is a term that is pretty outdated, IMO. We have cameras with fast FPS and it is a great tool for sports and wildlife. Go ahead and take lots of shots. Have fun with your new D500. It's a fantastic camera. [/QUOTE]
