    nickt replied to a thread Back button focus in D5600
    Some models force release priority when the back button is set for AF-On. The d7200 does this. Regardless of how menu a1 is set, the d7200 knows to...

    nickt replied to a thread Histogram in live view in General Digital SLR Cameras
    I didn't watch the video yet, but it looks like my d7200 has it only in movie mode. I thought d800 series was the only ones that had it.

    I just did some googling. I saw a similar question on a d3200. The solution was to turn "manual movie setting" to OFF. Can't try it. Not even sure if...

    I don't have the camera to try it, but what exactly does not work? You are pushing the +/- button and turning the wheel... So... is it that you can...

    For a stationary subject, you must release the button when you recompose. Otherwise it will instantly refocus on whatever the focus point lands on...

    I don't think back button focus will work right on the d3500. Yes you can set the back button to perform focus, but there is no release priority...

    Yeh, I think you'll need to send it in. It probably won't be cheap, they will likely just replace the whole circuit board its attached to.
