You didn\'t read carefully and only pick out the words to escalate this. Be more constructive next time.
Now, tell me, do you own the 1dxII and please tell me what went wrong in those mis-focussed images.
Yes, I do. The camera handed off the focus to one of the expanded points. Figuring out when to use point expansion, group and so on is the biggest challenge.
And that can result in an image with nothing in focus? (the first image) So next time i should really use 1 point focus and have that on it\'s beak? Hmm, that\'s not all that easy peasy.
The next image is showing the branch in focus with the focus point above the branch, how do you explain that?
I\'m nitpicking for sure because you could have read (in the 1dxII image thread) that in a sequence of 12 only 2 were oof. Just trying to figure out what and why. I do know case 5 would have been better, though it all happened in a blink and i didn\'t have time to switch.
Sorry, I think my replies are coming in between your edits.
I\'m not familiar with your series in the 1DxII image thread. IMO, I would read about the autofocus parameters and set them up in \"My Menu.\" Make sure you fully understand them, and adjust them directly as needed. Personally I think the Case numbers are a mistake to follow blindly, and a person is better off understanding what is going and altering the parameters as they see fit.
Either that or just shoot in defaults.
I know what cases do
I modified some to my taste, but again, i did not have the time (or i\'m just not fast enough yet with this camera) to switch.
