I found a solution by experimenting but it is not for this kind of pictures.

When the AF begins to not work well due to the lack of light I have a small red laser not to strong but strong enough for the job. I point it to where I want and the AF locks fast on that point,

GREAT idea (Darn why didn't I think of that?)  I've attempted to use a flashlight, back in tungsten bulb days, for help in trying to focus in very dim light.  Manual of course and never pointing it at hungry big toothed critters.  I still struggled.  Now I gotta try to remember where I put that old laser pointer.
