Will come back to you on this, I'm travelling at the moment, note is this experience with the af or lcd, they do function slightly differently!. Note, if you keep your finger pressed on the function button it does allow you to change functions on the fly too, so if you just now and again want to use af-l, you can do it that way. Through the evf you should be able to set exposure very accurately without neededing to modify much and then just use the green box to re-focus?

Thank you for your interest.

First of all I don't use the lcd, touch controls and Fn touch swipes. That's why I didn't mention them.

I've read the manual back and forth so I know I can re-configure the Fn button on the fly, but at this moment I'm looking for my overall best settings to be confident in what I do with my new camera. It's easy to get confused when you always change configurations. However, I'm afraid that changing my settings won't solve the oddities that I've pointed out about AF-L and the lack of focus lock keeping the shutter button half pressed for many shots.
