[Flexible zone AF] or [1-point AF] is recommended for [AF area].

Setting [Whole area tracking Servo AF] to [Enable] makes framing easier and adjust the composition.

If the AF frame moves to an unintended subject, you can prevent unintended movement by changing the [Whole area tracking Servo AF] setting from [Enable] to [Disable].

Selecting a slightly wider [AF area] such as [Expand AF area] helps keep the subject in the AF area.

If you are aiming for a quick scene such as a spike/block scene, you can set a wider AF area such as [Flexible Zone AF] and set [Servo AF 1st image priority] to [Release priority] so that you can quickly shoot at the player who jumps in.

If you need to photograph a specific subject, we recommend using [Register people priority].

Also, for climactic scenes such as a spike scene, we recommend setting the [Action priority] target sport to [Volleyball].
