Hey Jim,

I pretty much agree with you. Instead of using the entire swath of focus points on my 5d iii, I typically make the focus areas larger and bounce between zones. For AF tracking for BIF, etc, I will switch to the larger spread...but that is the exception to the rule. Generally, I like to pre-focus when shooting any moving object. I find I get better results by predicting where I think the object is going - rather than the camera doing it. Of course, LOL, that does not always work...
