Auto-focus: how do you use it?

Here is a little trick that works for me.
If you are taking a shot of a stationary or slow moving thing, I push the button half way down... at the same time checking to see where the red dot is hitting (where it will focus on) if it isn't in the right place, I move the camera slightly and do it again until the focus is locked on the point I want then take the photo.
I always leave the focus in auto select unless I know something is in front of the subject I am taking that will fool the camera (for example, when I was trying to take a photo of our cat under the tree I had to choose center focus because branches where the first thing the camera would focus on.

remember in auto select focus, usually the subject closest to the camera will be chosen as the focus point.,

hope this helps
