[QUOTE="aced19, post: 239675, member: 9734"] You are correct on AF-C setting and the way it works. But what I have found out with my own experience, you think your holding the shutter button halfway pressed but it's just to unpredictable. My keeper rate was terrible by doing that method. When I learned how to press and hold the [COLOR=#000000][COLOR=#000000]AE-L/[/COLOR][/COLOR]AF[COLOR=#000000][COLOR=#000000]-L button my keeper rate went way up.
