Tried shooting with AF-C as my default setting. Found a big downside: focus hunting. In plain terms, if you focus in a single-spot metering mode, AF-C often causes the lens to momentarily lose focus and re-acquire it, which takes time, making it more probable to take a shot at precisely the wrong moment..
Here's the shot where my focus point was firmly on the lavender sweater at the bottom of the frame, no motion blur at 1/300 s, and yet it's hopelessly out of focus.
