I need to test. Probably it is difficult to get used to.

I have used it from, hell I can't remember from when I first bought my D80. I can't do the 1/2 shutter thing especially when I am using glass with VR.I use it all the time, particularly in cold weather and using gloves - so much easier than the half-press.
The only issue that I have with that setting is when you try to ask someone to take your picture or for a group shot, then it can be problematic. Otherwise, it works great once you get the hang of it.
Yeah, I have a settings bank setup specifically for point and shoot; just switch banks then hand the camera over.The only issue that I have with that setting is when you try to ask someone to take your picture or for a group shot, then it can be problematic.

For this Glenn, it's the only time my camera goes to the green mode. My daughter understood the concept but my sister-in-law was like, how do I focus. So anytime I need someone to get someone to snap of pic with me in it I just put on auto.

I'm not sure if this can be applied with the D800 / D3s?
What you saying the pro's dont use Auto..... Guess I never really noticed, guess you should get a non-pro body and hang with us for a bit.
These cameras only come with M,A,S,P mode. P mode (Professional mode) is the closest auto configuration that I can use.
I'll check it out if it is even possible but the problem is if you don't use "banks" that often, I tend to forget what settings I stored in there, so I just give up using them. Between cameras including my Fuji, too many configurations for me to remember. LOL!
That is something I never thought about, but will need to remember for whenever I get to move up the D3 or D4, but I wouldn't count on it anytime soon unless I want a divorce.
Mike talks about setting his banks here as well as the configurations he uses. You can set it up your own way but just to give you an idea of the bank configurations and the point and shoot settings using the "P" program mode. I have several bin files set up ready to load into my D800 with many configurations using some old SD cards.
