With center spot focus, no time to lock focus then recompose with what I've done. While holding down the back-button focus, to focus/recompose one would have to have autofocus set to AF-S. If holding down back-button focus in AF-C, then move center spot focus point from focus point to recompose, the camera would then refocus on whatever enters the center spot, losing the original focus point. For me, more reliable and consistent tracking of subjects is done with center spot focus, AF-C than the in-camera tracking that Pentax offers thus far. I've actually gotten good results, depending on which lenses are used. I sell my action shots from sports. In the coming weeks I will upload hundreds of action shots in addition to what is already there, but you can see some of my results if you're interested. The best are football-varsity.

Thank you very much! I can't remember for sure but I would bet there were a few toward the end of the sequence that the focus missed my target and I bet I had to toss a few. The last two shots I remember were after a few seconds of buffering and were from about 60-70 yards away. The F*300 4.5 is a really good, quick lens in spite of it's age. Quicker than the DA*300 for sure.

Yes, I use this technique (K3II). For Sports AF-C - I ditched tracking and went with center/spot and rely on own ability to be sniper accurate. As long as I keep spot on, and hold down AF button, good things happen. I will break forum etiquette and put up a series of 12 shots. I wish I could give full resolution. SHARP!
Shots are from F*300 F/4.5 Lens Setting are ISO - 400 F -4.5 1/5000
