[QUOTE="stmv, post: 83862, member: 10038"] who knows, I am becoming a skeptic to all this focus talk. use a tripod, control experiment, then maybe, but I truly wonder how many are user error. I prefer point focus, moving the point around to the spot. and taking the shot. zoom in in preview to double check, and so far any focus issues have always been my technique. I will say, that quality technique including shutter pressing is critical with these high resolution cameras. when I don't have my remote release, I have gotten into the habit of timer x 2 (2 shots per press with a 2 second delay for the first shot), by the second shutter the camera is definitely 100% settled down. Of course, shooting at say 500th second or more, then technique can be relaxed a bit. If you want sharpest photos, then one has to be willing to invest the time. [/QUOTE]
