Hey guys, I've been trying to take photos of cats with my Nikon D60 55-200mm recently. However, I realized that my camera's 3 focus point limitation cannot allow me to take a clear sharp and focused face of the cats. This is because I tried to focus on their face and recompose the shot to get the image of the whole cat instead of cutting it off at sides of the frame.
Well it could be due to handshake and the constant movement of the cat's head. However, there are cases that if the focus point is constantly painted on the cat's face, I would get a clear and sharp image of the face. So the question is, are there anyway to get a sharp and focus image of the cat face without painting the focus point on the face of the cat to re-compose the shot?
Thanks in advance for any advice
This image below is one that the face is OOF.
This image below is one that the face is clear with the right focus point painted on its face.
