This may be an old topic, but I just assigned my d7200 AE-L, AF-L button to autofocus. Just wondering who uses back button focus and who doesn't, and is it a good option. Everything on the Web seems to say it is wonderful. If so, why did Nikon not just build it in?
I switched over to back button focus 8 months ago and love it. I photograph mostly nature shots, mainly flying birds and find it fast and accurate using my thumb to focus and forefinger for shutter. I followed Steve Perry's direction for setup on my D810
