(I already asked this question on nikonrumors.com but this forum seems way more active.)
Hey guys,
I was thinking about buying a Sony a7, soon. However, now that I actually tried one for more than a couple of minutes, I had a problem with the auto focus which looks like it might be a deal breaker for me. I was wondering if any of you guys has some experience to share here.
With my Nikon D5200 I always work with AF-C and change the auto focus point from shot to shot, to reframe the image. With the selectors and joysticks on the Nikon DSLRs this is particularly convenient and intuitive. I know that many experienced Nikon photographers work like this.
It seems that the Sonys are not really made for this type of framing, are they? Shifting the focus point requires at least one additional button being pressed, am I right? Did anybody of you Nikonand Sony user stumble across the same problem; and how did you deal with it, eventually?
Cheers Felix
