[QUOTE="Nathan Lanni, post: 176787, member: 14629"] I need your help understanding something. I reassigned [B]AE-L/AF-L[/B] button to [B]AF-ON[/B] according to the info on page 256 of the manual (see below). It's my understanding that you use [B]AF-ON[/B] to focus, release the button to lock focus (even in AFC), and then re-compose. The problem is once I use [B]AF-ON[/B] to lock focus and press shutter release button to capture the image, it re-focuses to the AF focus point of the re-composed view. Note: In the past, I've moved my AF focus point avoiding the need to lock focus and re-compose but I don't want to do that right now. So here's my setup: [U][B] IN-CAMERA[/B][/U] [B]A[/B]perture priority mode AF ON AFC + S [U][B]LENS[/B][/U] 18-200MM M/AF VR ON + NORMAL Cheers [/QUOTE]
