Sorry, I meant the Windows driver during auto-focus. It seems to use
small steps when changing focus instead of making steps proportional to
out-of-focus estimates, which could be much faster. Thus, between
two extremal focus settings, it takes around 4-5 seconds until the
image is sharp again by the software-driven auto-focus. IMHO this
could be improved for the Linux driver.
Best,
Alex
