AI Servo Test Part Deux
I had a chance to try out the focusing on the Canon EOS 1D Mark III again today and found that it does have issues. It's not as quick locking onto focus* and even when it does it sometimes forget that you're tracking someone/thing and focuses on something else for 2 or more frames.
Is it a show stopper for me? Not really but I could see where it could come in really handy when say shooting kids having fun and some where in between all those spray and pray is the perfect photo.
I'd like to thank Nat Dogg for being such a good sport in helping me with this. While we were at it we even made a stop motion styled video which you can check out here.
Camera settings:
1/400 f/1.2 ISO3200
Lens used:
Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM
*Just to be clear obtaining initial focus is WAY faster than my previous 40D and the 5D Mark II that I tried. So slower in focus is all relative.
