It's apparent that Dr. Pepper is more focused than Coca Cola, or at least more consistent.
Oddly, besides having a focus inconsistency, the Coke can has an odd look to it. Can't quite explain it, but the color is kind-of "splotchy" as if the image was noisy, and also downsized.

Agree. It kinda looks like underexposed and brought up in post.
The DP can examples were straight from camera except for an Auto WB applied in Lightroom. No adjustments other than that.

The Coca Cola can sequence has that slight "shadow" where the white lettering meets the red can...just as RG's did in some of his shots, and just as my mark2s do in bright sunshine with a white jersey and a dark background.
The DP can does not have this, but it doesn't have as much contrast.
I really want Canon to fix these AF and shadow issues so I can buy a new camera or 2. I've had the money in my piggy bank for awhile, but I'm not breaking into it until they've got this stuff fixed.

Well, here is a 6 shot series with my 70-200f2.8IS on tripod, Al Servo, Center AF point, 10 fps, ISO 800, 6 ft distance, 200 mm, f2.8, 1/80 sec. The EXIF of all files retained.
I don't see any problem with Al Servo on static objects @ 10 fps with my 1DMk3. As all EXIF are available, you are more than welcome to check each image. The cloest focus distance of the 70-200f2.8IS lens is 4.6 ft.

In a real world shooting with my 1DMk3, the result can be amazing. I do have thousands of good image to show how capable the 1DMk3 is just from my recent trip to Bosque.
