Quick AF Change

[Welshy74]

I currently shoot rugby using mostly Group AF and was wondering is there a quick way to flip between Group AF and Single point AF on my D500. Ive taken a look in the settings and there is an option to assign to the Fn button but there is no option of AF changes? Can anyone help????

I've assigned pressing the joystick to override whatever my current focus mode is and give me Group continuous.
Go to custom menu f1
Highlight Sub-selector center
Press OK for options
Select AF area mode + AF-ON
All available options are listed - inc sinfle point AF

I've checked on my D500 and I can verify that Fn1 can be assigned to override whatever focus mode you're currently using and force single point whilst pressed (either single servo or continuous)
Use method as described above

All set up and I'll see how it goes on the weekend
