What this mean? Better use dynamic track with minimum focus point?

For shooting the running horse to my direction
What is the best autofocus setting to use?
1)  AF-S or
2) AF-C
I think af-c better since I can track the horse and burst, but I always get blur image when burst shot

And for AF-Area Mode, what is better?
1) Single-Point 
2) dynamic
3) 3D

Autofocus speed will change depend on the autofocus setting right? 
And I suppose single point will be fastest, and then the dynamic 9 point?

I tried to use the af-c single point af area mode, but seems I hardly get sharp image even use shutter 2000.

Thinking to try use Af-c dynamic 9 point next time.

AF-C
and 3D mode is my fav mode of all! 99% usage biggrin.gif

Works fine in most situation!
Making focus and recompose so much easier!

Really ar... Lol.. did you lose focus while doing it?

Maybe you can try at AF-C Release shutter when subject is focus.. Some lenses might focus slow and that 'might' be the reason why.. Just a guess!

heheh me too  biggrin.gif

AF-C + 3D makes my life easier for general shoots with moving subject or recomposing.. 
I uses AF-S + Auto Area for the rest of the time though...

Haha Nikon has made our lives easier happy.gifv

Arigato Nikon!!

My friend bought a D600 from me last month. today he bring it back to me in this shape
user posted image

That D600 Was attach with a Nikkor 24-70 F2.8 when it fall down from a table (4ft height).
The metal lens mount Teardwon from the D600 and the stick on the back of 24-70..
We brought it back to nikon malaysia service center today and they said the cost of repair it back to fully functioning might cost another D600... (at the end he buy another new D600, and will leave this in his dry box for the rest of his life..)

Guys, do not hold your D600 with 1 hand when a heavy lens attached. The Metal lens mount is stick on that piece of plastic (D700 and D800 are on metal body)
*
Wow thats quite insane!

What about the 24-70? Is it alright? Thanks for the heads up about the metal mount on D600

eh ayam wan know the 3D tracking, when and how to use it? what it does one ah? im using a D7k, but never touch it before @@
wah sad RIP  cry.gif  cry.gif  just the front part rip off only need repair so expensive meh? ><

Oh kk.. Hmmm let me try to explain!

Now switch your camera to AF-C mode and choose 3D tracking later on...

There should be only 1 square in your view finder.. that is where you want to point it to your subject..

Hold the shutter button on the desired subject.. move it to the left/right, to your desired composition.. whats going to happen is that your you will hear your lens AF moving, it is re calculating the distance between the subject and the sensor!

Or you could do this test..

Point ur AF square to your siblings or parents.. ask them to walk infront of you the AF will definitely change to a shorter distance.. but ofcourse this feature will be great with lens with fast AF such as 24-70 or 70-200 vr2 etc!:D

hope it helps!

I would go for 24-70, one leg kicking lens! 70-300 is pretty much handicapped indoor due to small aperture.

But you don't have the 24-70 tongue.gif Haha! I would go for 2470 too! Such a sweet lens! If only the updated version has VR like the new tamron 2470!

how to focus for panning shot like that? isit agak2 when the car is in the frame or "follow" the car from far? :/

What I do is set it on AF-C 3d tracking..

Follow the car on far and release shutter where I want to compose the car!
Here are some of mine from TTA biggrin.gif

You'll definitely have fun! Once you walk in the paddock, lets say you're facing the spectators seat, turn right and that's the first turning, try walking down till you reach the 3rd / 4th turning! You could pan with the malaysian flag as the background!

Ahh Don't think I'll be going! >< I have Milo breakfast run haha.. comfirm leg damn jelly after the run :/ You have fun man!

Can bring anything in, they don't check bag 1.. this is kinda casual for everyone, just remember don't be a smart ass and stand at the road and put your life and other people's life in danger! Stay safe!
