Regardless of how menu a1 is set, the d7200 knows to force release priority with bbf set. If you set a1 to focus priority and you can still consistently use bbf then the camera is probably forcing release priority. To test, set a1 to focus priority, then bbf on something close, then point the camera to the sky and shoot. If the shutter won't trip then you are in focus priority and not getting the full technique. If the shutter does trip, then the camera did override a1 and force release priority. In other words, the shutter should always trip in bbf even if absolutely nothing is in focus.</p></blockquote><p></p>
