[quote name='haring' timestamp='1302697028' post='7593']

- Is focus trap a feature of the lens or the camera? I am sorry if the question is too basic.-

- Is there a list of DSLRs I can use "focus trap" with? Canon, Nikon, Sony, Leica, Mamiya, Hasselblad, etc...?

- Can I use with any lens on cameras which capable of the focus trap feature?



I have a few old manual lenses and it would be great to focus on moving subjects...



Thanks a lot!

You can not focus trap with Canon EOS cameras, at least not with the "low end" ones. I do not know if the 1D series behave differently. The Canons do not offer "focus priority" without auto focus. I think with Nikon you can, although I do not know if all models behave the same. Whether you can actually focus trap with old MF lenses with Nikons I do not know. It may well be that the AF sensor will not be active without lenses with the right electronics.
