Nikon: Shutter half-press vs AF-L/AE-L button?

Ok, I'm inside a cave and then I want to use the Spot Metering on my Nikon DSLR to make the entrance of the cave bright and the interior of the cave (where I'm) dark. Then, after locking exposure to the cave entrance, I want to recompose and move the cave entrance to the side of the frame.

My question is that, does half-pressing the shutter locks exposure as well as focus just like what holding down the AF-L/AE-L button does?

Will Nikon ever make an AF-S version of the 50mm f1.2?

As you may know if you are familiar with the Nikon product line, Nikon has a 50mm f1.2 but it's an old, manual focus only lens, and it sells for about $725.

Nikon has already modernized its other 50mm lenses, with the f1.4G and f1.8G, and i think it's time the 50mm f1.2 makes a modern serious comeback.

What do you guys think?

Nikon 1 J2, Canon G1 X and Sony Nex-7?

So, I'm looking to purchase one of these cameras, although I'm open to recommendations. My budget is around 1, 000 dollars, I personally want a camera for the purposes of modeling or generally outstanding pictures in all settings from scenery, group photos as well as lighting. The reason these cameras appeal to me is because of the size, they're compact but intricate. These cameras also appeared to be the top of their tiers. I'd appreciate if someone could break down to me the significant purposes of each camera, and which would suit me best based on the information I've given. To be more precise, I would like a camera that has a lot of useful settings and effects in order to take unique photos.

How to focus on the eyes with a DSLR?

I have a Nikon DSLR, but I'm pretty sure that settings are similar to other DSLRs like Canon's, or Sony's, or Pentax'.

When taking portraits, or people, you should always focus your camera on that person's eyes. But, how do you do this? Do I set my focus mode on "Single-point AF" and manually select the focus area on the eyes or just leave it at "Auto-area AF"?

How about my metering? Do I set it to Matrix, Center-Weighted, or Spot given that my subject is in the dead center and in a non-studio background?
