[Advanced: Motion]
Use Pre-Release Capture to record photos in the moments before the subject is detected. Because
Pre-Release Capture can make it difficult for the camera to focus using autofocus, use manual focus
to fix focus at a point where you think the bird will land.
Try changing [Speed] and [Subject Size] if you find that the camera responds to motion in the
background.

Caution: Photographing Birds
