I took most of the photos on my vacay using my old and trusted Pentax K-5. Haven't played with it in a while I struggled getting my preferred shooting style, focus & frame, to work. It'd just continuously autofocus as I pan. Turns out this little knob was knocked out of alignment from AFS to AFC 🙃

This did ruin a few portrait photos as the continuous AF would get the subject wrong. But at least vast panoramas weren't affected. This knob is also on the side of the body, separate from the AF mode toggle on the back. And I completely forgot this was a thing!
