p.1 #1 · Focus lock on MarkII and 20D | |
Shot an A league baseball game last night with a fellow who is a pro. First time ever for me, I am not a sports shooter. Found out really quickly that there is a lot to learn in sports photography and I have new admiration for some of those spectaclular shots we see in SI and other mags.
One of my problems is that I don't understand and don't know how to use focus lock on either of my cameras (MarkII and 20D) Obviously it helps to focus lock on say second base if you have a runner at first and say two outs. I tried using what I think is the focus lock button (the one marked with an * (asterisk) but it did not seem to work.
Custom function 4 on the MarkII give some options for exposure lock/focus lock but I found it a bit confusing.
Do you have to keep pressing the * button to focus lock?
What is the bes way to do it?
Any other tips or advice on this subject would be greatly appreciated
