[QUOTE="Soniclight, post: 620774, member: 43660"] My first posting here and the subject line is pretty self-explanatory. Although... When I say "All" Modes, that's probably not possible or accurate. Let's say "most". Auto, Program, Manual, and such. Due to my experience in digital still and video editing, I can take a dull still or frame and do magic with it. Almost 50 years ago, I started on a 35 mm Minolta. Have used a camcorder for the last 10 years (consumer grade Canon HV30) and did quite well... .... with autofocus on. While I will be taking stills with my new 5500, it's really the 60p video that was one of the main factors why I got it. I want to be able to pan and zoom with some depth of field without having to hit the "focus" box on the LCD screen or fiddle manually (not a viewfinder kind of guy anymore). So if anyone can tell me: [B]a)[/B] if this request or wish is possible, and [B]b)[/B] if so, where in the Menu to go to set it Thanks. ~ PSK [/QUOTE]
