When you go higher end, or professional range, most of the common settings is done from the buttons instead of in the menu. It's not put in some effort, it's actually more easy and fast, it's important.
Doing in menu waste time and need you take off your eye from the viewfinder and look at the menu everytime, this also consume battery power, etc.

Those serious about DSLR, usually look for more convenient controls rather than set everything from menu. If want simple, better get compact digi cam, which now have very powerful and smaller size like those EVIL cameras. Those that "want" a DSLR because it looks cools, yet they want the ease of use, so there is this low end entry level targeted for consumers.
Shame on me... I don't know how to use when someone pass it to me ask me to help them shoot. Since I need to shoot immediately, no time to experiment how to set this and that...

itz eazier to control but have to memorize which button do what function and main/sub dial to adjust what setting shakehead.gif

I guess you're shooting close-up with 35mm f/1.8 @ f/1.8?
If yes, the DOF is shallow, and if you move even a little the focus plane will change; To test this, you can try use AF-C, then focus on one area and hold it. If the lens re-focus, it means you moved a little and the focus plane changed. In this situation, using AF-C you might get less chance of OOF; BUt with AF-C, you can't focus and re-compose.

IF you're using AF-S and shooting up-close @ f/1.8, and you're using focus and re-compose, then your problem is obvious.

f1.8 cannot focus and recompose? ohmy.gif

if you are new you don't have to buy anything. master what you currently have in your hand then move on, you can move on to prime lens/2.8 constant lens/flash...

well if that in the case it comes to preference whether you want something new which might be flash.
constant zoom. or prime.
well I'd say it depends on people preference
last time I bought my flash first as I am listening to suggestion by KTCY when I started my photography well the flash end up sold by me tongue.gif
I prefer prime lens to constant zoom lens.

however I couldn't deny the fact that I want constant zoom lens too.  tongue.gif
Give me lah abang!

what the different betwen prime and constant zoom? shocking.gif
