[QUOTE="GatineauRoss, post: 842089, member: 52260"] I should explain, I had an expectation of getting some type of camera signal that I was in focus when using manual focus with the Live View. I now understand how to use the camera to focus my images (magnification button :) )with the micro lens and manual focus as seen through the Live View. I do have a follow up question. For macro photography of still subjects like mushrooms with the D3400 and the Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G lens, I do have a choice of using Automatic focus or Manual focus. Is one method of focus better than the other, and if so why? Thank you. [/QUOTE]
