Re: UPDATE - Nikon D5/D500 Dynamic AF Issue


Another group of settings which you might want to try:

a1 AF-C Priority: Release
a2 AF-S Priority: Release

a3 Focus Tracking with Lock-on:
Blocked shot AF response = 1;
Subject motion = Erratic

a8 AF Activation: OFF > AF-ON only > Out-of-Focus Release > DISABLE

a12 Focus point options:
Manual focus mode = OFF
Focus point brightness = +1
Dynamic-area AF Assist = ON

Then use with Single Point or one of the Dynamic series.

The result is that the shutter only fires when an object within the Dynamic frame is in focus.

The downside can be that shutter fails to fire when the target is partly out of focus so you fail to record the complete sequence of movements.

The larger Dynamic spreads may be useful with this technique.

This is also similar to the set-up that I use for Focus Trapping.
