Cyclic coloured lighting is the bane of my existence when shooting concerts, the focus shifts as the colours cycle. I've taken to using centre point focus, disconnecting the AF action from the shutter button and using the back AF button and crossing my fingers that I get focus lock. If the camera can't get a reliable lock then at least it doesn't go hunting every time the shutter button is depressed. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
