[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 656977, member: 25095"] Howdy and welcome to Nikonites!!! "Auto" mode is basically ignoring most of your settings and letting the camera decide what to do. With single point, you're telling the camera there is exactly one point that you want to be in focus. When you set priority to focus, the camera will not let you trip the shutter until that single focus point is in focus. If the camera can not achieve what it thinks is focus, you don't get a shot. With the priority set to release, you trip the shutter whether the focus point is in focus or not. There are times when the AF on the camera can not determine whether it's achieved focus or not, or may you want to focus on an object and then move to recompose ... so that the single focus point is no longer in focus. Both settings can be "right" it ultimately depends on what you're trying to do with your camera. [/QUOTE]
