That's probably because you have the system in AFS-AUTO - AutoFocus Auto, in which you are allowing the camera to make all focusing point decisions. You can change that to control it better including AFS-Single which is a single focus point which you control exactly which point to use.The D40 and D40x have focus systems that do not have as many AF squares as the D5500...I think you'll find that a D5500 has like, a decade newer AF system and a decade-newer level of focus capability!
Right.. So it's hard when my subject is on the left or right side and it only wants to focus in the center.. I've messed with the AF options but it tends to do what it wants
