I can’t remember off hand for the 3400, but you might be able to reassign the AE Lock to the function button, which means you can use the deticate AE-L for focus? Again, not sure on your model though.

Hi Everyone, Thank you for the lovely comments! For some reasons, I've not been notified of the comments so I wasn't aware there had been any :(

Hi Horricks, thanks for your comment. I trust you're looking at it on a fully calibrated monitor? My monitor is and also matches my printer's monitor/printer profiles - Although with an image like this, for print I'll add a little curves adjustment to lift the shadows light if he suggests it...

Thank you Brazo :)
