I made a lot of rolls since then getting quite good results. Yesterday I noticed a funny thing: the AF seems to focus on a slightly wrong focal plane. If I set manually to the correct focus and press the release button the camera moves the lens out of focus and then blinks red the squares and green the confirmation light in the viewfinder. I've never noticed this and probably my DOF was always enough not to show this problem on the slides. I've tried in different modes (P, Av , Tv) and with different AF selection modes (automatic all the sensors, manually the center one, with EYe) but the problem seems to be always there. Trying and retrying with the same subject at the end I manage to achieve (the spelling may be wrong, sorry) the AF but this is annoying. Has anybody experienced this problem before and what could be the cause???? @#!!@# the warranty expired three days ago.............

I had similar problem with my RT when I put a grid screen in it - camera was focusing on what was not in focus to me. So, I just took the screen out and put it back in and everything got alligned and my eye matches the camera's AF. So, I'd try adjusting the F.screen.
