But, this thread really is not about who has the better cross-type sensors now is it?
It\'s about someone who wanted to sell all of their equipment and buy completely new equipment, based partly on AF performance. I was pointing out that some of the 5D\'s problems are present in the D700. Are you trying to tell me that\'s somehow not relevant?
It\'s unsurprising that not everyone has experienced the issue I\'m talking about - you need to shoot in particular situations to see it. And then again, there\'s those who loathe the 5D\'s system because it \"doesn\'t work\" and they don\'t know why - I submit that this is one of the reasons it doesn\'t work well. In contrast, even the 40D\'s system works better in the sorts of situations I\'m talking about.
You are correct. I apologize for adding my 2 3/4 cents.
