D700 Focusing Question

[Steelmagnet]

Hi all.

If I shoot a sequence of frames on my D700, I *think* it refocuses between each shot.

For example, if I've pre-focussed on some cricket stumps and pan with a bowler as he runs though, I think focus changes if my single focus point moves off of the bowler whilst the shots happen.

So is this what happens, and if so, is there a setting that changes this mode of operation?

I might not even have explained this very well, and I guess what I'm asking is "does focus stay locked during a burst of frames?"

Thanks all.

*** I should add that this is with my camera set to 'S' mode, so it's not continually focussing.

you can adjust how long it stays on focus i have mine set off.

focus tracking with lock on its in the custom settings menu

Use rear button focusing, disable focusing from the shutter button, and set to 'C', then it will only re-focus when you press the rear button

Thanks all. Nice to know I made sense.
