Dumb question from one who's man enough to admit a distinct lack of 
experience in this area.
Do AF cameras have a "hyperfocal" setting, ie can you actually tell them to 
not bother to even think about focus? Given the discussion about focus 
confirmation indication on the C*n*n digis, it would appear that just 
switching them to MF is not enough...
I guess more to the point does disabling the AF actually remove the 
associated shutter delay and give a useable hyperfocal workflow, or do they 
still pause to think about it?
