[QUOTE="Blade Canyon, post: 435235, member: 15302"] I advise against leaving the front button as FX/DX. The very issue with my D600 that brought me to this website a few years ago was accidentally hitting the FX/DX button and switching to DX, which I did not realize as it was not totally obvious to me in the viewfinder (because I had never used that function), so group shots that filled the FX space were cropped too tight to be any use. (Heads cut off.) And I'm not the only person on this forum who has confessed to that mistake. I do use Back Button Focusing with the AE/AL button reassigned. My preference is AF-C, single point, so I can focus on the eye, then recompose. Or, if the subject is moving, I can just hold down the focus button without making any other adjustments and fire away.
