When using AutoFocus, what AF-Area Mode do you usually use. I'm new to action photography and was wondering. Any help?
Thanks,

To prevent the camara from getting confused and focusing on something else (such as an athlete in the background and not where the action is taking place Canon 40D, 70-200 f/4L, 28-135 IS, 50 f/1.8
