Hi All

I really love motosport photography, but unfortunately out of approx 20/30 pictures from one postion I will usually only end up with one or two keepers which are actually in focus.

My method (right or wrong)is to use auto focus and focus on the area I wish to take the photo, I then pan back to where the car/bike will come into view and start panning until I reach my designated spot then release the shutter, from focusing to releasing the shutter I have the button half depressed to stop the camera re-focusing as I pan. Is my technique flawed?

This is one of my successful ones below:
