Hello Shel, Perhaps it's AF. I still am leary of just how big an area the sensors really cover. I see more minor misses with people using AF than you would believe. Many times, DOF helps cover it up because of slow lenses, but when examined closely, the focus is off just a bit.
I'm still a die-hard manual focus guy. AF is helpful in some situations, but that is definitely the exception, not the rule for me. I even have converted my daughter, Erin, to only shooting manual focus. She has seen the difference in exact focus and has put in some practice. -- Best regards, Bruce Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 5:22:21 AM, you wrote: SB> Hi Paul, SB> Look at the Biker Chick pic.
