Do people use this function button for actual locking exposure and if so whats the best way and the most usual scenario.
Thanks

I don't think so, but it would be in the manual if you can.Is it possible to use the custom function and assign AE Lock to another button?

That places exposure lock on the shutter release right? That's suitable for some situations, but I don't think it's a behavior I would want as a default.Yes.in the custom functions

If the composition and lighting remains constant, then having the exposure locked on 1/2 press isn't a problem at all... even if the composition changes it can work well (i.e. focus and recompose, but it's not necessarily any *better* than the default behaviors). What is probably more important than *when* the exposure is locked is which metering mode is used to set the exposure.Yes it does. The rear button becomes BBF and half shutter press becomes AE Lock. Though I'm not too sure yet about the pros and cons. Im still new to photography so it takes me a little while to get my head round it all.
Nor me, but it answers the question asked.That places exposure lock on the shutter release right? That's suitable for some situations, but I don't think it's a behavior I would want as a default.
