[QUOTE="aroy, post: 465158, member: 16090"] There should be no noise while focusing the 35mm. As others have said it is whisper quiet. Get it checked and if the noise persists exchange it for another piece. Regrading sharpness - remember that the DOF at F/1.8 is quite shallow. Any movement between the time of focus and taking the shot will shift the focus, especially at short lens to object distance. Now a days I notice that with AFC instead of AFS the shots are a tad sharper as the camera keeps focus tracking till the end. If you are shooting high contrast objects like flowers at short distance, it is better to use "Spot" metering rather than "Matrix" metering, and then correct the ambient exposure in post. You have to shoot RAW for that. [/QUOTE]
