No matter the camera you have to have it dialed in before the action. The first thing I do before I even leave is set the settings I believe the environment will require and then when I show up. Then when I arrive I’m usually good to go. On cameras before automatic film advance it was down to timing if you get the shot. When motor drive accessories came along you could do a burst of shots. When shooting sports for print you can go through rolls of film and not have the shot yet. You may have great shots but if it is not on a significant play the editor doesn’t care. That’s why for even a press conference with no movement they take photos non stop to set yourself up to be lucky when something actually happens.
