[QUOTE="canuck257, post: 568449, member: 38099"] I'm having a problem getting my head around fine tuning my focus/exposure settings. Simply put, I can't seem to figure out what button intiates exposure and when.:confused::confused::mad: I'm usually shooting in Manual and I have the camera set up for back button Spot focus using the AF-ON button to focus (AF-C) and the Shutter release button to only trigger the shutter. What I can't seem to grasp is, does one or both of these buttons initiate the exposure metering system and, if both, is one prioritised? I have the Sub Command Dial Button (joystick) programmed to Group focus when depressed. Does this also trigger the exposure system? Sorry if this is one of those "stupid" questions but I just don't get it!:sorrow::sorrow: [/QUOTE]
