When I mean focus dots I mean the red dots you see when you look into the viewfinder.And If I can focus it using the thumb button rather than half click than click on the shooter finger.I know the canon 30d’s can do this and I was wondering if a rebel xt can and how can you set it that way.Hopefully this isnt confusing.

I understand what you want to do, but don’t know if it’s possible since I have never tried this with my XT. If you have your owners manual, the instructions are on page 73. Because you have to press so many buttons that I don’t know how to describe without a picture, I am unable to write everything out for you. Let me know if you don’t have the owners manual. I might be able to email a copy of it to you.
In manual mode, you can select where the red dot is needed by clicking the top left button (The one with the logo of the red dots) and then moving the dot with the wheel neer your finger.
