How to get to grips with the Z8 autofocus

The Nikon training team has been wonderfully supportive for me to understand this brilliant camera's focusing set up. Having learned which focus setting does what I also learned how to set up the camera for ease of use thus preventing me getting into too much of a muddle when the action got quick whilst photographing migrating wildebeest in the Maasai Mara. Came back from the trip with many more 'keepers' - so pleased, so happy. Explanations, demonstration and the knowledge were excellent.
