Great pictures. It appears as though that lens/body combo may have some back-focusing issues. They all seemed a little soft but I wasnt sure until I saw the last one where the girl in the back is just tack sharp.

Thanks Adam, So would this be an excuse to get the M3

Well you can either...

Live with it
Send it in
Buy a MkIII

Whatever suits you the best haha. I mean, truth be told, all those images are sharper than anything ever was with film. And, if I hadnt seen that last picture, I probably wouldnt even have said anything about it. I wasnt sure if they were a little off or not until I saw that one.
I had the same thing happen to me with a 300 I was using. I shot an entire game and when I got home, all the pictures just looked a little softer than what I thought they should be. Sometimes I over-analyze things so I thought maybe I was just seeing things but then I saw that one shot where everything was clearly backfocused.

Wow. Now that you have said that I see a lot of my photos show just that. Thanks for picking that up.

I have the rest of the session to shoot plus graduation.

Option one is not an option.

Option 2 ( send it in ) If the camera is calabrated to one lenses what about the others? How long does it take?

If I took the plunge for option 3 how long would it take to get the hang of the Mark 3?

Thank, Paul

Not long. Once you have a Markk III, you will have a hard time picking up the 40D.

I dont know how long it takes them to calibrate stuff. Ive never had to do it. As far as getting a MkIII...I guess that all depends on if you want to spend the money.
I owned a 40D along with the MkIII at one point and theyre both very powerful and capable cameras. Ive seen many pictures taken with even a 20D that blow me away. If youre hesitant to spend the money on a MkIII, the MkIIN is definitely an amazing camera still and can be had for a good amount less.
