Gee, I paid the guy a compliment about his work. Didn\'t know I needed to duck after posting my comment.
Sorry if you took things wrong but I stand by my post. Two images out of a burst of 12 doesn\'t make for a soft focus camera. Especially when you admitted you used the wrong Case and af mode. All your other images posted on another thread were very in focus.
FYI, I have the 1dx2 and owned the 1dx since it was released.
I ignored the compliment because of the matter of the discussion. But thanks anyways.
I said (i thought) i was wrong setting a general tracking case and using a larger focus area. (i wasn\'t sure, i just assumed it). But after reconsidering, and seeing the focus area that should be in focus, especially with the branch in focus, where the focus point clearly is not on the branch i started to doubt whether a different tracking case and smaller focus area would have eliminated this \'error\'.
And just to be clear, i never said that my camera is a soft focussing camera. I think this camera is great and love using it.
I\'ve had this happen to me even with my 1dx. I don\'t use The Case examples provided by Canon. I adjust tracking and af switching to suit the shooting sutuation and lens used. What I would have done is back off on the Tracking Sensitivety to prevent the af system from locking onto a closer subject and maybe backed off on af switching as well. I wouldn\'t have used 9 pt but center and four surround. I also include each of the Case parameters in My Menu so I can make changes quicker than going into the menu system. YMMV, but this approach has worked for me.
