Recommended AF Settings by Event
Long Jump and Triple Jump
Choosing a dynamic-area AF mode with
comparatively few focus points ( r ) when
photographing long and triple jumps from
the front helps prevent the camera focusing
on the sand while still letting you capture
subject motion.

ject in the frame, choose 72-point
dynamic-area AF or select auto-area
