Being in af-s with bbf, you won't be able to release the shutter if you recompose. Using the technique properly, you won't need to use af-s mode. You hold the back button for continuous focus and release it when you don't want focus. Releasing the back button is a pseudo af-s mode. That is the beauty of the technique, you have continuous focus when you hold the button and have the benefit of releasing the button if you want to recompose. Focus-recompose is normally impossible in af-c mode, but the bbf technique makes it possible.  Its on you to assure focus is where you want though, the camera will fire regardless of focus.</p></blockquote><p></p>
