For my latest Custom Function Button assignments go to What You Can Assign to the Fn Settings
For the rest, below are some notes.
I use:
- Aperture Priority when I am not so concerned about subject movement. For landscapes, cityscapes, still life, general photos
- Shutter Priority when I want a specific shutter speed either slow or fast.
- Manual Exposure when I shoot electronic flash as the primary light source or specific scene requirements. Or when the exposure metering is hyper active when I already know the lighting.
Fixed ISO, often with Aperture Priority or Manual Exposure.
Auto ISO, often with Shutter Priority especially for candid impromptu street photography
Cog Menu > E1 > ISO-Auto Setting > Lowest Limit / Default ISO 200 to ISO 6400
Cog Menu > E1 > ISO-Auto Setting > Lowest - 1/160th sec
Single Point Autofocus Patttern for patient, thought out scenes. Often with Aperture Priority. Trying to shift Focus Point using the Joystick as opposed to my long standing habit of Focus and Recompose
All Points Autofocus Pattern for street photography, often combined with Shutter Priority, With A2: AF Area Pointer: On2 - Display frame while shutter button is half-pressed,
S-AF-MF often with Single Point Autofocus Pattern and Aperture Priority or Manual Exposure.
