If I am in an environment where the light is rather constant, I chose my = aperture for creative reasons (Bildgestaltung?) and set depth of field = that=20 it covers infinity to what ever is left. When I am in a hurry I just = shoot=20 and hope. If I have a second I adjust. I got my first T400CN back and I like it very much. It's all 2nd nature - yes? J=F6rg am i the only one?? my habit for years has been to, when 1st approching = a subject, to virtually subconsciously set the lens at an a guessed = distance before i even bring the camera up. then i only have to fine tune the focus. this business of resetting the lens each time to infinity is an = unnecessary step. shooting sessions fall into patterns: you are moving in at a = rate (usually of walking), you are stationary (no need for radical refocus) = etc. its all 2nd nature - no? steven blutter
