[QUOTE="stevebobb, post: 168111, member: 13314"] I have a question. I found out recently....... Me Again Not reading the manual properly!!!!!! When selecting [B]M[B]anual [/B]Focus [/B]I have forgotten to switch [B]BOTH[/B] manual focus switch on my Nikon 24-70 2.8 lens and the D800 camera focus selector on the camera.. In the manual [B]page 101 [/B]it says :- "Do not use [B]AF lenses [/B]with the lens focus mode switch set to [B]M[/B] AND the camera focus-mode selector set to [B]AF[/B] [U]Failure to observe this precaution could damage the camera Or lens!!" [/U] I have definitely done this I really hope I have not damaged the camera or lens...!!! I don't seem to have a problem, but just read this in the manual!! and it shocked me.. and now I am worried! Has anybody else done this? If you did, did you have any problems?? [/QUOTE]
