Thanks for all the input. Started this discussion because most seem to call the A-E, A-F button the Back Button Focus. It can also be used for exposure (A-E)

Using Back Button Focus for Exposure Hold on Nikon

Experimenting using the AE-L AF-L button to set and hold the exposure while using the shutter half press to focus.
In Tools. set AE-Lock to hold and AE Lock to Off.

Frame for exposure then press AE-Lock button, then use half shutter press for focus lock.

Iphones.

Have a Nikon dslr wit many lenses and gadgets. Just aquired an Iphone 6s+ that has a 12mpx camera. Learning how to use for personal photo shots and activities that just happen when you don't have access to all your photo gear.
So far the hardes part of using the Iphone is holding it steady and keeping the fingers from blocking the lens.
