Kevin, could you test something out if you're free- do both an auto and manual focus (spot AF, at 1.4, without flash) of some reasonably close text (e.g. a 50cm away shot of the word Microsoft on your mouse perhaps?) and see if there's any difference? I've noticed over several shots that my AF shot of the text is very disappointing, not registering clean edges..
