Guys, I am sooo confused. I have been trying to learn the basics of my new D5100 by shooting in manual mode. With SLR film cameras, I was accustomed to making my own adjustments and I thought I did pretty well. The move to the D5100 though has been confusing to say the least. Yesterday, while shooting in manual mode, with the camera mounted on a tripod, the point of focus, i.e., the little red dot on the monitor shifted all by itself. This evening, also in manual mode, the little red dot in the viewfinder was not centered in the viewfinder and I could cause it to move by pushing the Okay button. Is there a way a simple guy like me can make the bloody red dot just stay put in the center of the monitor or viewfinder and stop bouncing around. I am about ready to buy some film.
