Hi, Jorrit, the feature you're talking about is called FTM (Full Time Manual) and, at least with my 300/4 L IS USM that has FTM, doesn't require a button to be pushed. Not sure about your lens but you can just give it a try by gently(!) trying to focus manually in AF mode. BTW, if you are getting serious with SLR photography, you'll probably try to find another lens sooner or later. The 28-80, with or without USM, is not one of Canon's masterpieces (I have one myself, the non-USM version, so I know what I am talking about...)
