As i noted. the F90X/N90s and the F5 have a provision to have the AF single servo mode in release priority, and the AF continuous servo mode in focus priority. is this possible with the F100??? how about the photosecretaryII??? happy shooting carlo _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
