i have just fallen in love with the a700 MF button... OMGG!!! hunting NO MORE smile.gif ahahhahahahha ive HALVED the focusssing time for my 70-300

u mean AF/MF button at the rear? how to use it? i tried it but cannot adjust the focus lol..

my step: focus at some object -> half pressed the shutter for lock focus -> tekan the AF/MF button -> fail to override the manual focusing..

is my step correct?

edit: just found at the menu option : its choose Lock Focus.. biggrin.gif

Kul | Mo0: Exactly why I hate SAM lenses for the KM7D/A700/A850/A900! I see now why the 50mm F1.4 interests you.

However, I forsee that you will find this focal length to be too tight eventually... so might as well aim for the Sigma 30mm F1.4 EX DC.

MechaHerc: You should enable DMF and AF/MF toggle. So when it's focused you can turn the focus ring (DMF) and if it's having trouble focusing you can press the AF/MF button to switch to MF. Alternatively, if you want it to stop refocusing, press the AF/MF button to fix it in MF.

neo_lam: I've said it many times here before - I don't like SAM because it does not let you use the AF/MF button on the back of the KM7D/A700/A850/A900. It also does not let you use DMF.

Kul | Mo0: Eh, you coming to Steve McCurry's thing at IAMM tomorrow and then to KLCC? The Sony World Photography Awards at Galeri Petronas is free entry for all, tomorrow launching 5pm.

there is a GREEN Dot....

in AF, it show ((o)), when in focus confirm it teetee with only the green 'o'.

when in MF, the ((o)) dissappear, and a MF word appear, when infocus confirm, the green 'o' appear.
opps, why not? especially the face detect in LV mode (hahaha joking, but if the LV were to take into account, wont it get more points?)  laugh.gif  laugh.gif  (i kena scold adeee >.<)

one more thing to ask, since the A550 AF sensor is in box shaped, meaning it detect the contrast in vertical and horinzontal rite? instead of older AF sensor which is | and \ / shape....? doesnt that helps a lot more?

i also just know about this.. laugh.gif thanks fothe head up thumbup.gif
