Thanks Eric. Page not found. However, I knew right where my wife's K-x manual was, did a quick look at page 115. The language is very similar to what is in the K-3 manual WRT AF-A. Except that AF-A is the default on the K-x.
I am intrigued by this function. Not because it is something I had been hoping for. Rather, I am trying to figure out why they would have such a setting. How, in actual practice, I would gain anything from using this that I wouldn't have using AF-C. There must be a reason it is there, but I just don't get it. I may play a bit with the K-x later and see how it operates . . . stan On Nov 3, 2013, at 6:08 AM, Eric Featherstone wrote: > On 2 November 2013 17:09, Boris Liberman <[email protected]> wrote: >>> p45 Three (3!)
