And now I see that the article is changed claiming a \'delay\', whereas it flatly said \"halt\" before.
Lloyd really finds things difficult that other people don\'t seem to have a problem with.
What is he saying here? He focused using AF or MF, not clear, verified with magnified view and did an aperture series where he changed aperture using the aperture ring and somehow the series was ruined. Did he really change aperture using the ring and not recheck his focus in case he might have accidentally moved the focus ring a little?? Sounds like pilot error. How would this be an AF problem?
I would not dismiss his finding so quick. I found his comment about Leica quite true, for example, Leica S AF performance. you can see lots of Leica people complain and laugh at him, but he actually gain my respect for that matter because he really understand the issue, and what is going on here.
I also would guess about focus shift, but I think he might find some thing interesting here. say how sony camera do AF focus. I myself did a few testing with 16-35mm FE lens on A7R and finding some annoyance as well, for example: when the lens stop do VR thing (it did at around 1/500) and how the camera select focus aperture, set effect on will focus at shooting aperture, and set effect off will not shooting WO but f8 which is to my huge surprise. Depend on the lighting, this keep change. Good job, sony, can I have some control for my own camera in field? Can I turn off the fxxking VR if I don\'t use it? I believe RX1 might do something similar. I did test long time ago but didn\'t remember how it choose shooting aperture anymore.
