I'm just hoping they can keep the accuracy while improving the speed.

Birdman7 Member 100 posts Joined Jan 2013 Location: Spain More info | To rely on bodies like those to focus with the AF ASSIST, it must be pretty dark, not sure if it would be worth a pic unless one likes flash-lit pics with dark backgrounds. But, fair enough, if theres a bug, good to have it fixed. Birdwatching tours
