[QUOTE="Vinnydude, post: 221701, member: 17618"] I've been doing some shots for a local rock night on my d5100 + sigma 17-50mm f2.8. I have just been messing around with my setup trying to get the most reliable correct autofocus in low light and have just noticed something very odd and wondered if someone of you guys can check it for me :) It seems as though the camera finds centre focusing a lot easier in low light than if I tell it to focus off to the left or right. It's no problem at all, in fact knowing this I can make sure I get the best focus! But I just thought it was a little odd and wanted to see if any one else can back this up for me :) (P.S Shooting in single servo - single point :) ) [/QUOTE]
