Very interesting! ...in C-AF option your saying you press back focus button and the camera will maintain focus until you depress the shutter?
all on its own?
and to use the 9 or 27 pt array with center priority for most accurate tracking? (like a surfer coming towards you on a wave) auto tracking (or hoping its auto tracking) the surfer coming at you... what will give the highest percentage of keepers?
What Exact settings?
i am about to put the K-3 in a dedicated water housing with flat port 24mm focal length on the lens (18-50 f2.8 sig)
i will not be using the view finder to frame the shot i will be in close quarters
the housing has a pistol grip(one handed operation) two stage trigger- 1/2 depressed activates focus (but your saying after a few seconds with single point AF-C it will stop tracking... that is not good
) and fully depressed takes the shot.
i need the camera to auto track as long as i 1/2 depress that trigger (which is connected by camera trigger cable to camera inside housing)so when i pull that trigger my subject will be in focus please!
Which settings will give me best results? floating around in the water is fun but i need keepers... not just- sometimes a keeper!
