I thought I had it at one point, but when a sudden photo opportunity surprised me, I forgot and didn't focus. Recently, I picked up one of my other camera's and I was momentarily thrown when nothing happened as I pushed the back button. That was a good sign that my thumb now has the muscle memory to do the right thing without me thinking. Its a great technique for anticipated action. Focus on a basketball hoop, home plate, a finish line, bird feeder, etc. When the moment arrives you'll get your shot off much quicker. Sort of like manually prefocusing.</blockquote>
