This is such a basic question that I am almost embarrassed to ask it.
Long ago, I used to center point focus and recompose. Not so awesome.
Then I went to mirror-less, and I always moved my focus point to the eye. Great focus, but takes quite a bit of time.
Well, with my nikon I always end up using the closest focus point I can, stick it on the eye/or my subject and shoot. Then I end up cropping quite a bit more than I would like to for composition. If I have time, I throw it into live view and use it like my sony so I can get the focus right where I want it.
But I sit here and wonder- Is there a better, more efficient way to use my Af points, without sacrificing all the pixels that I am cropping out?
If there is already a thread that you know of that will answer this, please link me!
