[QUOTE="hark, post: 762535, member: 13196"] I got rather frustrated trying to figure out how to turn off BBF on my D500 as I wanted to switch to using the shutter actuation button to both focus and take the pics. I kept running into the issue of both the BBF button AND the shutter actuation button allowing the AF to work when either one was pressed. :confused: So I wound up having to search Google since going backwards through the process didn't work. And guess what? According to what I found, the D500 ships with BBF already enabled [I][B]as well as[/B][/I] the shutter actuation button already enabled. So the only option to do is to toggle the shutter actuation button on or off - unless there is a way to program the back button for something else. And that I don't know as I didn't look into it. I wanted to set up bank A for BBF and bank B for the shutter actuation button to both focus and take the pic. Guess I will just settle for going into the menu as I couldn't figure out how to program bank B. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
