[QUOTE="Kodiak, post: 176200, member: 15426"] Hi everyone, I was looking at the [URL="http://Post your 'ALMOST' Photos.."]"Almost Photos"[/URL] thread and I thought: "…but there is a simple way!" I think that most of the "almost" shots would have been cool shots if a single option was chosen in the Menu of your camera. If you are shooting in [B]AF-C[/B], go to > Custom Settings Menu, (the pencil icon) > a Autofocus > AF-C priority selection > select [B]Focus[/B] instead of release If you are shooting in [B]AF-S[/B], go to > Custom Settings Menu, (the pencil icon) > a Autofocus > AF-S priority selection > select [B]Focus[/B] instead of release …this is the way the menu is laid out in my D3X… I don't know what it may look like on your camera. The benefit of this selection is that your camera will not shoot until focus is acquired. Modern gear is fast and reliable so a fraction of a second delay should not be a great problem… anyway, a lesser problem than an out of focus take! Have a good day… [/QUOTE]
