[QUOTE="voxmagna, post: 694601, member: 38477"] Wow! What a trap for the unwary. I changed both to 'shutter'. That explains a lot, because when I first started with the camera using AUTO settings, I didn't understand why I couldn't fire the shutter in some low light conditions. Now I see the options it makes me think you should never get an out of focus shot with them enabled, but I have had them. I can see also that when in manual mode, even though the shutter can be released, the auto focus indicator still works. However, when you are shooting a black sky with a few stars and aurora, the in focus indicator should never come up anyway. I shall be watching for the red graticule more often now, lesson learned: However much you may think you have practised, the real location shoot can throw up things. This now explains Nikon logic that if a VR lens is set to M/A focus you have to change default configuration settings? I always post view shots and I think I would rather have the shutter always fire, than shoot blind and let the camera stop me for no focus? Revised custom configuration settings now changed - Many Thanks [/QUOTE]
