[QUOTE="nickt, post: 714481, member: 4923"] Does s-af mean af-s? If you are in af-s and using bbf, that is unconventional and could be the problem. Some people do it, but that is not how the technique is normally used. Holding your shutter button half way is not going to help if you are set up for the back button and trying to recompose. Either turn off the back button and shoot normal, using the half press to recompose. OR... set up bbf correctly. That would be af-c with menu a1 set to release priority. That is a must. From there, I SUGGEST single point focus. To use the technique, hold the back button to have continuous focus release the back button to stop focusing. As an example, hold the bb. Focus the single point on an eye. release the back button. Recompose and press the shutter button. The beauty of the technique is that when set properly, you get af-c and by releasing the button you get a simulated af-s mode so you can focus and recompose without changing modes. [/QUOTE]
