I give you- My first d7100 action photo!

The D7100 (and other models) offers 3D Focus tracking mode, which can follow a subject that has been selected by YOU, around the frame.A Thousand Words A Picture: Nikon Autofocus Guide: D600, D610, D7100 and D7000 (Phase Detection)

You might want to check the viewfinder's diopter adjustment, to make sure it's 100% perfectly set for YOUR eyesight too.

You might want to set the camera to capture in sRGB mode (just a thought).

There *is* a lot to learn, about the AF options and modes and so on.

I'll check out that video. I did dial in the diopter to my eyes. I need to finally fill my new glasses prescription, but I can't find any frames that I like, and I can't send these in because I would be blind for 2-3 weeks. Lol

I'll check out that video on the AF system. I definitely need to learn more about it! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Derrel! Thanks for those links. I finally got my AF set up correctly and also set up back button AF. Well see what happens with it today!

Thanks so much!! I got lucky that my son noticed them crossing the property, and at just the right time.
