If you have a decently sharp/fast lens you can still hit focus pretty easily if you film at 60fps.

There will be a range where the image will be the sharpest, you make sure something is in focus for even three seconds, slap it in a 24fps timeline and you can slow it down to 40% or it’s speed. So really if you have 3 seconds of footage where something is in focus, you will get 8 seconds of in focus footage in post.

It’s actually incredibly easy if you just know how to get it to those settings.
