Bye bye D40, Hello 450d!

[Remedi]

Can't remember which setting it is, but you can lock focus and then re-frame the picture as much as you like with it still locked as you originally intended. For example, you want a person framed between two focus points, just use the centre one then move to the actual composition you want.

I've played around with professional cameras littered with focus points before and you still need to do that from time to time. My D50 only has 5 (all near the centre) and I have never ran into any issues, and I've worked my camera pretty hard.

Oh cool.

Maybe i should dig out the manual...
