[QUOTE="hark, post: 389065, member: 13196"] Since you are hearing the lens adjust slightly, the back button focus option should eliminate that problem. :) I had the auto focus in my camera body calibrated (not any lens) as my focus point was way off even though the lens didn't adjust; however, there were other times when I heard the lens adjust so I knew to focus again. I still have the problem with hearing the lens refocus from time to time. My D90 has a tighter shutter release button. What I mean by that is when it is pressed partway, there is a definitely resistance felt under my finger. My D600 and my current D610 lack such a noticeable resistance. I STILL have times where I will focus and recompose only to hear the lens move slightly. And then there are the times when I try to focus and hold the shutter release halfway only to have it trigger the shutter before I am ready. :rolleyes: You also have the option to perform your own focus calibration on your lenses. There is a lot of info here on the forum as well as on the web. Here is a link with a downloadable focus chart and an explanation on how to use it.
