On my XT2 =

Button/Dial setting - Shutter AF - AFC to ON. You might want to do the same with Shutter AE depending on your setup. Also check shutter/release priority - again to your preference.

AFS remains set to back button.

Vic,

I am a little confused with this statement. Could you please clarify? I use back button focus currently with both AFC and AFS, I have AF-ON tied to my back dial on my x-t20 and Shutter AF set to Off. The only two options I have in Button/Dial setting for Shutter AF is ON and Off and the setting seems to affect both AFC and AFS.

I have separate options for Shutter AFC and AFS on my XE3. Under Button/Dial setting - Shutter AF - I have both AFS and AFS. See photo below.

Am I missing something? Is the x-t2 different? What you wrote seems to suggest a different behavior for Shutter AF depending if AFS and AFC (MSC switch) is selected. I am probably just miss reading what you wrote.

Or, are you saying that with Shutter AF set to On you can still use Back Button focusing for AFS as long as you keep the back button pressed since AF is locked by the back button?

Thanks,

Michael

One up for the XE3.

I just checked my XT20 in answer to this post and the XT20 does not have the option to separate AFC and AFS for Shutter On. Maybe that could be fixed with a FW update if enough users ask for it.

I use 3*3 zone or central AF sensor max size according to the nature of target

If trajectory is highly predictable AFC one point central AF sensor max size gives better results

In all other situations zone 3*3

The CfG for AFC depends on the subject for BIF I use 1/0/front or 0/0/front

RivkiLocker,

Thanks for the picture. That explains it I tried looking in the online manual for the ex3 and did not see this option.
