[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 4480, member: 654"] What is your focusing mode? It looks like the camera focused on the numbers 34 on the back of the player standing up. That left the players that should have been in focus out of focus. The focusing mode should be: AF-C Continuous-servo AF. In that mode the auto focus will follow the players down the field and will hold them in focus. You should also have the Area focus set on: menu a1: AF-area Mode, set to Dynamic area. In this mode with the focus spot on the action that's what will be in focus and not the 34 player as happened above. Oops! Sorry I gave you instructions for the D90 which may not be the same on the D3000. Check your menus you should have a continuous focus mode and a area spot focus setting. These will do the same thing as the ones I described for the D90. [/QUOTE]
