Canon 5D Markii

[nicki mcmanus]

I recently purchased a Canon 5d Markii, and wondered if anyone else that has this camera is having any auto focus issues with it. I did some research via the internet on it, and found quite a few posts, both good and bad. It seems that it has an issue with soft images, and from what I have read, it stems from a sensor issue. I wondered if anyone else could give me some input. Still trying to figure out if it's a camera problem, or something I may be doing.

Can you give us examples along with EXIF info? We may be able to diagnose what it is thats the issue.

The only AF issues I have with my 5DmII is in low light. During wedding receptions I can occasionally grab focus with the center AF point only.

Otherwise I have very few complaints about the body. If you have good technique and a good lens, it can render pretty stunning detail.

WOT HE SAID

My mkii is perfect on centre focus, but the out points are average and get worse in low light.

some sample stuff with EXIF and the scene set up would help a lot.

yep - in low light I only use centre af point... it jumps around a bit on the other 8.. //Sime
