[QUOTE="nickt, post: 617713, member: 4923"] You will get used to it as it is. The ae/af button would not be a good match since you need use the wheels along with the button. And someday you might like to try back button focus like the guys above mentioned. That is the most popular alternate use for the ae/af-l button. But don't worry about that now, just get comfortable with your camera as is. If you really hate holding the button while turning the wheel, menu f6 - release button to use dial, will help a little. That will let you press the af mode button and then release it. The camera will then wait for you to use the wheel to complete the function. It saves you from needing to continue pressing the button. This f6 setting affects all the buttons that normally need to be held while turning a wheel. It is useful if you have a heavy lens mounted since your left hand may be supporting the lens and unavailable for button holding. [/QUOTE]
