Does your camera have the U1 and U2 settings? I've never used them, but I should.
Jerry I find these very useful settings. I use U1 for landscapes and fixed and slow moving subjects. Aperture priority base of F/8 and other landscape type settings. I use U2 for BIF set to Shutter priority with a base of 1/2000ss and other settings for fast moving subjects. Very easy to setup, set your camera to the setting you wish to save (I call them base settings), go to the Setup Menu - Save User Settings, save as U1 or U2. On my D7100 the only modes I use are U1, U2, and M. One example would be a sunset. I go to U1 - 'A' priority with the base of F/8. Change that to F/4, change other settings. Now I want to go back to my Base settings. Switch the mode off of U1 to another mode then back to U1. You will now be back to your U1 base settings. This is how I use U1 & U2 hope this helps. - Bruce

After doing more thinking about the AE-L/AF-L button, and talking to my grandson who knows more than I do, I assigned "AF-on" to the button so I don't have to rely on pressing the shutter button halfway down to focus each time.

I have looked through the user manual, and perhaps... (show quote)
Wingpilot in your manual checkout - Custom Settings Menu - F/Controls. F4 will describe all the options for the AE-L/AF-L. I set mine to AF-ON for BBF on my D7100.

I waited without success for over an hour for the other parent to come home so I could get a family photo. Maybe next time.
