Hi all,

I have a D750 but I can't figure out how to get back button focus working in Live View, despite setting it up for viewfinder shooting, which was simple and works fine. Any help is very welcome.

 

Best,

Ray

These are two features that I would never considered
using simultaneously… just me!

What lens do you have? Some third-party lenses don't focus in Live View with BBF.

I figured it out. Trial and error. It's in Customs > Movie. BBF was okay in Viewfinder and LV but not when recording in LV. Testing things out after many years with Canon so may not use it.

 

Cheers,

Ray
