  Short. Sweet. Always been too scared to try it, but sometimes messing around with focus points takes way too long! Will definitely give this a go! Thanks Matt!

  Matt,
  
  Here is a suggestion for a technique video or even for a video series:
  
  I am a having a difficult time creating interesting photographs: I guess I am having trouble "seeing the photograph". I see something interesting, but when I put the picture on the screen, it lacks something (possibly the composition, subject, or emphasis are wrong). The technical aspects (exposure [I shoot in "M" manual mode], depth of field, and focus] are all correct, but the picture is missing something.
  
  Could you do a video on "seeing" the photograph?
  
  Thank you.

  Hey Matt
  
  Thank you for your superbly simple and clear videos!
  I am thinking about buying a D800 as the prices drop for used models BUT I read a lot about how difficult it is to get sharp images due to the high resolution. Is that true? Becaise on a crop 24MP sensor like on the d7100 there are even more pixels per mm2 and it seems no issue there...
  Could you clarify this mystery??
  
  Cheers from Berlin
