App refocus when taking picture, please help!!!!

Post by adinis78 »

Hello all, started to go back and use the app with a D7200 and a tp-link 3040 router. And I have a question when taking a picture. So after I set my focus using the "AF" button on the app and then press the "camera" button, it starts to focus again then takes the shot. Is this normal? Anyway to have a af lock using the app? Thanks. Running latest verseion of the app on an iPad. Also noticed that I can't change the Focus mode via the app. I have to disconnect the app, change the AF mode (af-s,af-c, etc.) on the camera first before the app recognises the mode. Thanks in advance.

If AF button is red than it will focus before capture, if AF button is white it should not focus before capture.
To change it long press AF button.
