[QUOTE="aroy, post: 305834, member: 16090"] For the first image - the AF has a tendency to wander if there is a lot of detail moving - as in your case the hair is blowing, so the AF may be trying to track the hair instead of the face. I have had a lot of shots where the AF had a mind of its own, till I realised what was going on. Now a days I try to phocus on, say the eye, and then lock it before taking the shot. Else I wait till the moment is right an shoot. Taking shots in RAW simplifies a lot of things. First of all you can play with exposure compensation, and then selectively boost/dampen the highlights or shadows. There is enough DR to play with. Unfortunately with JPG you do not have much latitude. [/QUOTE]
