[QUOTE="eurotrash, post: 119087, member: 9237"] If you have no idea of how the features of your camera work, you are right in avoiding combining them. Start to learn exactly what different focus modes do and don't do, and USE THEM so that you can see the effects in real time. Obviously this setup is well-thought out and in my experience, it's very good at doing what it intends. I have this mapped to my U1, so I can immediately start shooting action if it arises. Just go back to M or A when you want to and everything is reset to what you set it at there. Easy. To answer your question, I prefer to use the AE-L/AF-L lock to lock exposure AND focus 100% of the time [U]when I'm not shooting anything that moves quickly.[/U] My Fn button is set for DOF Preview 100% of the time. It functions as a Modeling Flash button when a flash is connected and being controlled manually. [/QUOTE]
