In reply to Sergio.

I use rear focus primarily when I want to focus and recompose. With moving subjects, however, you must push and hold the rear focus button to track a moving subject. That is what I did here.

I would recommend that you read and study the latest version of the rear focus tutorial that is mentioned in the post.

Center AF point/AI Servo Expand/Rear Focus AF as framed was active at the moment of exposure (as is always best when hand holding). The selected AF point was right on the center of the bird’s breast, conveniently on the same plane as the bird’s eye.

On your article above; there I one thing I don’t understand ( I’m learning ) when you said ” as framed was active at the moment of exposure (as is always best when hand holding)”

Thank you!
