The switch is made via the multi-selector on the back of the camera, easily accessed by the right thumb without taking one's eyes off the viewfinder. If you're shooting in AF mode, pressing the top of the dial (once) takes you directly to MF, and your selection is confirmed by pressing "ok" in the center of the dial. It's a two step process but not bad, ergonomically speaking....at least on the P600. The P900 is larger, but I'm hoping that will actually make manipulation of the camera a little easier, since I find the P600's dimensions a little squishy. I'm also hoping the improved EVF on the P900 will facilitate better manual focusing, but haven't found any reports on that yet.</p></blockquote><p></p>
