for the assignment, take a series of images using continuous focusing and experiment with fast moving objects to keep them in focus. Examples would be sports or traffic.

For the exposure element of the assignment, use spot metering to get a more accurate exposure with subjects in difficult lighting situations such as theatrical and concert lighting.
