This is correct and the images are ( just as in the D60) a bit larger than
what the viewfinder shows.
 Jonathan ,one of the few useful things I have read about this
Out-of-Autofocus is to supress the focus points except the central one, and
jump to manual for off -centered subjects. Don't know if  you have tried
this one. Also I would like to know if you have tested the SERVO focus
system for moving subjects, which I consider is quite a piece of engineering
from Canon, way better than regular AF
As much as I find outofocus a practical thing, I still use manual focus for
most of my shooting and I get better results, or at least more to my liking,
since I know where I was focusing and not where was the camera choosing a
focus point. This dates back to my film workflow.

 A  stock shooter friend of mine had the same situation with a 10D and he
was not even able to get perfect manual focus, but the replacement camera
showed up  perfectly is now an overnight  digital convert.
