It's a shot where you should use manual focus. Continuous autofocus might get it right. But it could easily miss. It's difficult to say why it failed. But, in general, I've found that contiuous autofocus works rather well on the D. However, I know that for shots like this, I can top it focusing manually. I suspect that would be true of any camera.

i am serious, this was my first shot (ever) with AF SLR and

or a limitation of equipment.
i know that with manual focus, this shot wouldn't have been a problem at all
(a swing is a pretty predictable device :)

With a canon or nikon it would undoubtedly be perfect.
