Interesting set up Matthew, the register/recall function I have assigned to my * button and I have enabled the subject tracking in that menu. When shooting team sports, such as football, I normally use the AF-ON button with single pt AF for 99% of the time. However, if I can isolate a player/manager or I'm shooting athletics, cricket, motorcycle racing, I use the * button which enables the AF to track the head of the target. It generally sticks quite well as long as the subject is not close to other potential targets in the frame. Recently I tried this with AF Case - Auto, rather than my usual Case 2 or 4, and I found that the subject tracking was much "stickier" on the Auto Case than the other 2. I used the set-up for hockey and I was pleasantly surprised at the improvement in the tracking.
