I seem to be discovering that there are two different focusing instructions depending if one uses the "viewfinder" or in "Live View" with the monitor. For instance the menus are very different for the Focus Mode, AF-Area Mode, and using the Set of Brackets which only appears using the view finder. All the pdf links I can find only discuss viewfinder for understanding focusing. Do you know of any links to discussions about understanding focusing in "Live View only" which I only use? Thanks for anybody's help.
