Yes, I sent it in with my 24-70 2.8 and with a CD with raw and jpeg images of my focus test and explaining how my test were done. I received a notice from Canon after I sent it in that I'd have it back in 10 days. After two more weeks, I called and it seemed that the 10D focus issue was a standard problem, so I got my expectations up that it would be fixed. When I got it back, I ran my focus test again and got the same results as before (aft focus). I was then convinced that I was just being picky and decided to live with it. However, when using it in the field, I still would get shot where the focus was aft. That's when I started consistently stopping down, boosting my ISO, and tweaking the focus forward after focus lock. I've read on several website about the focus issue with the 10D and I'm not alone. I usually don't bring it up on this newsgroup because it's a known issue with the 10D, but I couldn't let newcomers who've been reading this thread not know about the focus problems some of us have had with the 10D. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
