[QUOTE="J-see, post: 375961, member: 31330"] I discovered the option in the settings but always wondered what the use of it was. Until I watched the video linked here. I switched yesterday and still occasionally push the trigger while at first wondering why the cam isn't focusing but when I'm doing it right, it is great. It has enormous advantages while I'm shooting birds now. If I keep it pressed, the focus keeps tracking my subject and I trigger whenever it is worth it. If they land somewhere, I only have to release and my focus is locked. Even while tracking, if I spot a better target, I release, switch to the next and press again to track that one. No more accidental shots or loss of focus by lifting my finger just too much. It'll take a while before I am fully used to it but I'm already certain I won't switch back. [/QUOTE]
