- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Most of my photography is portraits with time to compose, so I compose and move my focus point as desired. I agree with what has been said and find this technique the most accurate.
If a run n gun situation like a wedding I switch to Nikon's 3D focus and use it in a way that is probably not intended. Using the centre I point I lock focus where I want, hold the focus button (on the back.... The only way) and then recompose as needed and the focus point stays locked to the spot I selected and moves around the viewfinder. Kind of like a combo of the focus and recompose method and compose first method. It works amazingly well.
