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

Setting [Subject to detect] to [People] makes it possible to detect the head, body and upper half of body even if the face is hidden when the snowboarder's position changes.

When photographing the moment a snowboarder jumps or if they suddenly come out from hiding, you might want to set AF area such as [Flexible Zone AF] or [Whole area AF].

If [Servo 1st image priority] is set to [Release priority], you can shoot quickly by pressing the release button at the same time as the player pops out.
