I have a pentax kx and it’s more time consuming to change focus points (there isn’t a toggle to do that) Do you ever focus and then recompose to make the composition the way you want or do you use a toggle to change the one focus point. I feel like it’s to easy to lose focus while recomposing but that’s the only quick way I can do it.
oh one more question:) do you still recommend one focus point when shooting moving subjects?
