Hi all,
I have a (probably dead easy) question for you lot..
I took my Canon 300D to a cross country event yesterday and was really let down by the fact that I had the background & jump in perfect focus and the horse blurred.
How do I correct this? The 'professional guy that I was trying to impress', said that I should investigate whether my camera can do 'continuous focus'. The idea being that as soon as a moving object (ie, the horse) comes into the shot- the camera focuses straight on that instead, thus eliminating the problem.
So... can my 300D do that? If so- how?!! I've looked through the menu options and can't see anything about focusing modes. As for the manual, that doesn't really mention much- apart from manually selecting an AF point.
