I guess, it was done using AF, Matt. Right?

Correct Ralph, AF was used.
Regarding the scene, this was in a barn with the only light coming from each of the far end doors. Lens used was the new EF 70-300 L IS handheld. F/5.6 was the result of both the zoom selected (lens is 4.0-5.6) and the desire to keep the daughter somewhat in focus while concentrating the focus point on the horse. At 100% the daughter is OOF but the photo looks fine viewed at normal level. In retrospect, probably should have pushed the limits a bit more and used f/8 - still used to older and less performing equipment. Guess it's time to reset to a new paradigm.
Trying to understand the pure performance of the 1D-X at high ISO maybe a desire by some, but in this case, was simply using higher ISO to get the best shot given the circumstance at hand. Neither my MK IV or 5DII would have provided output as good. Still more to learn about this new beast, but I am certainly liking what I've seen so far.
Regards,
Matt
