[QUOTE="Camera Fun, post: 116066, member: 13006"] I'll try to keep this short. I've read a lot on the focus modes but I'm looking for some thoughts from more experienced D7000 owners. I quit using auto-area AF as it sometimes selected points I didn't want it to use. For moving subjects, I've set U2 to use AF-C with 21 points and the Release priority so I'm comfortable with that for now. My main question is what option to use for my U1 setting that will work for still subjects but still allow for some subject movement. AF-A with single point? AF-A with 9 point? AF-C with single point and the fous priority option? AF-C with 9-point and the focus priority option? Also, what are your thoughts on the number of focus points? 39 or 11? Finally, what are your thoughts on Focus Tracking with Lock-On? Leave at default setting? Change period? Turn completely off? Thanks [/QUOTE]
