[QUOTE="nickt, post: 371001, member: 4923"] Jake, I don't know the d750, but I thought what you experienced was exactly how it is supposed to work. My d7000 does the same... to use back button focus with single point, I must use release priority or it may not fire upon recomposing if that single point falls on blur. Now I ASSumed my d7100 worked the same way, but I just tested it and it fires no matter what the priority is set for. It was as if it ignores the priority setting and you get release priority all the time when af-on is set. I thought I would obsess about this all night, but a quick look in my d7100 manual, p77, confirms this is correct for the d7100. That is,[B] if the back button is set for AF-on, the priority setting is ignored and you get release priority[/B] and you are free to recompose. So your d7000 should behave as your d750. Your d7100 behaves as you thought your d750 should. Not sure which side of the fence your other cameras fall on, but I'm sure you'll check it out. Interesting that the d7000 and the d7100 handle setting the af-on setting differently. [/QUOTE]
