The 3D tracking of Nikon is quote good. But not sure how it is on the D5500. Best would be to experiment and see what best works. But most important – you need to understand what all AF points are available on the camera and what each does.

That should not happen depending on the dimension of the image and the resolution you share. Can you please share your workflow.

Dear Renukumar, You can refer the A9 II or the A9 III course depending on which menu options match as all sony camera menu options are the same. These camera related courses helps you understand the camera functions and settings.
For learning photography using these cameras, you need to refer to the other courses.

January 26, 2026 at 8:49 pm in reply to: AF hunting with Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG HSM contemporary lens beyond 300mm

Ok, going through your reply, looks like there is an issue with the lens and you need to take it to service centre. What you have explained – that’s not common and is definitely not how a Sigma 150-600 behaves.
As an alternative – I would recommend you to try and test with a different Sigma 150-600 (if you can rent it) and compare the results.

Rgds,

There is nothing called as the best setting. You need to invest your time in learning the concepts. If you are my Online Photography Course student, please go through the course as per the learning path:

Dear Mohan Khullar,

Can you please explain what exactly is the AF issue you are facing? Also need answers to below:
– What is the AF point you are using on Canon 90D.
– Can you please share images where you are facing issues.
– Are you using One Shot mode or AI Servo?

AF hunting happens due to multiple reasons including:
– low lighting
– Distractions in the scene
– Subject not properly visible to lens
– If you are using any kind of filters to the lens

And to be honest, the Sigma 150-600mm is not a fast lens to get you good AF.

Rgds,
Sudhir
