Thank you!
I had changed focus control once before - a couple years ago at least - when I tried back-button focus and declared NOPE. Not for me...
I liked using BBF better this time around. It's been a rough year and my camera has been in it's bag far too long.
The long pause might have helped learn this new thing.
I had been having occasional trouble with focus zooming in on blades of grass or branches and making the subject behind blurry so bbf might be a good alternative.
BUT was a bit afraid of touching more buttons until I got this step figured out. Knowing how to move back seemed rather important, too. Thanks again!
(And I can't find my manual! Where did I put it? Downloaded a PDF this morning but I like the book in hand! It'll turn up...)
