[QUOTE="hark, post: 183138, member: 13196"] I don't have a D7100 (I have a D600 and a D90), but if I did, I would absolutely make use of those focus points! On my D600, I have 39 focus points which tend to be closer to the center of the image. Generally I use one single focus point which I position smack-dab in the center of the viewfinder--I focus with it then recompose the image. However, there are times when I want to take a succession of photos, and having to focus and recompose the image takes more time than I want. In those instances, I move that little bugger around. Sometimes I position the focus point on the far right; other times I might have it on the bottom row as far left as it can go. In other words, I make use of all the focus points--just not all at the same time because I prefer a single point! ;) So yes, I would make use of all 51 if I had the option. :) [/QUOTE]
