If you press the Shutter button down halfway to focus on the subject at the starting point A, the subject
may no longer be in focus when it reaches point B where you want to take the shot.
In such situations, focus on point B beforehand and then lock the focus so that it does not shift (lock
pin).
The lock pin feature is also useful for photographing fast-moving subjects that are difficult to focus on.
