If you're a left-hemisphere person, you can instead configure the AF-On button to "Stop Focus" instead.

??? There must be more to it than that. I tried it and the shutter release still controls it. AF stops when I take my finger off the shutter release. So it must also require a special setting for the shutter release?

AF is still on the shutter. You have to HOLD DOWN the AF-ON button to lock focus.

Thanks. Too many things to hold down, methinks.  I have it set to toggle between OneShot and Servo, and that works pretty well.  I'm always open to better ways, though, since focusing can never be too quick and easy.
