>>2613985>>2613983>>2613970>>2613845Unless I was dreaming it, the Canon I saw had the ability to lock and mark a subject with a little red marker in the viewfinder, and as the subject moved across/around the viewfinder the red dot would track the subject, as did focus.
AFAIK Pentax AF simply looks for something in the foreground that is nearest one of it's preferred focus confirmation indicators and retains focus on that.
So sure it will track the foreground plane, *because* it's in the foreground. Vis your example, but in the opposite context - If you were to be shooting the cityscape in the background when a very slow moving plane flew across your focuspoint, it would suddenly focus the plane.... which in this case is not what you want.
>18. Hold AF Status is set to 3 MediumIs simply a prioritisation of resources, i have mine set to high
>17. is set to 3 focus priorityMine is set to release priority, becasue fairly often the camera will detect non-focus, when in fact it totally is, or near-enough - is in focus.
In fact the K-3 will sometimes not fire for a moment even in the most perfect situation... I'm not positive what causes it. Might be that I let the camera go to sleep, but thats unlikely as generally it happens after ive already been tracking and shooting anyway.. and suddenly on the perfeect shot it'll just go "nope"... it might be a focus/release priority thing, but I doubt that too becasue i have release priority - with focus priority it is just worse at preventing shots and not always good at determining if something is focused sufficiently - again this may relate to focus selections vs where the subject is being focused at that moment.
Only on the K-3 too of course. K-5 has no release/focus priority etc.
