[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 544817, member: 6277"] If you read the standard post I send people when they ask about BBF you will see that I tell the to shot that way for at least 2 weeks without changing back for any reason. Shoot a lot everyday for fun and not on anything important just to get used to it. You are right that it is muscle memory. My wife will not change over to BBF because she has small hands and the D7100 is a larger camera so her thumb just is not comfortable stretching around to hit the button. When I have to check something with her camera it drives me crazy hitting the BBF button trying to focus. I have to actively think to use the shutter button and half press and hold and re compose to get the shot. I could never swap back and forth between the two focus modes. [/QUOTE]
