Moving Subjects

Photographing moving subjects requires precise autofocus and timing. Key techniques:

• Autofocus mode: Prioritize Continuous Autofocus (AF-C) for tracking motion (Fujifilm: AF-C mode).
• Shutter speed: Minimum 1/500s to freeze motion (adjust based on subject speed).
• Focus tracking: Enable subject tracking (e.g., Fujifilm’s “AF-C” with subject recognition).

Fujifilm Autofocus Modes

• AF-S (Single): Locks focus on stationary subjects (not suitable for moving subjects).
• AF-C (Continuous): Continuously adjusts focus for moving subjects (essential for this concept).
• Manual (M): Disables autofocus; requires manual focus adjustment.

The Fujifilm Autofocus Setup Guide: Modes, Features, and Optimization details these modes, though the guide emphasizes AF-S optimization (for still subjects). For moving subjects, AF-C settings are critical.
