Originally posted by slip I noticed the same. What I figured out that once ANY part of the scene I am shooting is in focus it will just fire away.
In other words if I am shooting sports and I have a blurred subject, chances are it locked focus on something other than the subject....most times the background. The focus priority doesn't care what part of the scene is in focus as long as SOMETHING is in focus.
Hope this makes sense
Thanks

Yes, it does make sense !
That would explain why the AF will keep firing on "something" that is not the intended target.
In that case, one might as well use Manual focus with CIF (catch-in-focus).
Thanks for the info.
