<p>Today I was out trying my D810 at a bird sanctuary. I could not get the camera into AF-C mode.<br>
I do it all the time with the D4, press the AF mode button near the base of the lens and spin the main command dial (the thumb-wheel).<br>
On the D810 doing this has absolutely no effect (AF-S remains the method displayed on the LCD) and spinning the sub-command dial in front of the shutter release button cycles through S, GRP and AUTO, none of which are AF-C.<br>
When I got home I checked page 87,88, 89, 306 and 307. It seems I am using the right technique, but nothing is happening.<br>
AF-S sucks for birds in flight.<br>
HELP!</p>

Daft as sounds but I had exactly same problem. I solved it by taking off and then putting back on the lens. I seem to recall having a silimar issue with my D80. I had just changed the lens so maybe I had not correctly engaged the lens. Very frustrating.
