[QUOTE="slates71, post: 298777, member: 24478"] Hi all, I purchased the D3200 a couple of months ago and have read the dummies guide to help me understand how to use the different settings. My first SLR camera. Just back from a city break away and I've had problems with focusing using the Auto area mode setting. Anything away in the distance it wouldn't focus and refuse to take the shot. In single point it was fine. Any close objects i found using auto area no problem at all.The full settings I use are Aperture Priority,focus mode AF-S,Auto area mode,metering set to matrix. 90% of the time my photos are landscape and cityscape. I thought auto area used all 11 focus points to focus. Sorry for waffling on but I love this camera but it's gets frustrating!I know it's operator error somehow Thank you, Paul [/QUOTE]
