I'd guess that
shifting one of the settings would bias the automatic selection to
a setting that was one or more steps above or below whatever the
camera decided was the optimum value, while changing that setting
would override the automatic algorithms and select an explicit value.

I've taken the autofocus away from the trigger button, put it on the AF
button and set it to spot in the center of the frame.
So, I take the detail that I want to focus on into the centre, shortly
hit the AF button with my thumb and then shoot when the moment is right.

Ann, I'll describe what has happened to me a couple of times and this

I mainly use the 4-way arrows to move the AF point around. I use them

That could happen another way as well. I often carry three small lenses

neither of the other two allow that but the camera helpfully puts the
four way into menu mode when I switch to one of them. I also use the FA

any opinions on that?
It is very rare that the auto-defaults of any of these things produce
the best results. By and large, I built up my own set of defaults for
Camera Raw and automated most of the grunt work of my image

1/ As I understand, when Lightroom imports data it copies it to it own
storage area (which means I'd beter have anough space for it). And I
can backup the originals elsewhere once the import is done.
2/ Lightroom also stores previews, its database etc... Can I ask
Lightroom to store *everything*

The Lightroom Library (or managed files directory tree) contains all
the caches, information and settings it makes as well
Tim, I'm not Godfrey either but unless you're trying to put your audience to
