The effect of lens choice on the 5D3's AF
#3
The 1200/5.6 is a FD era lens design so I wonder if that might have some impact. While I haven't checked exactly, isn't the 5D3 AF supposed to cover a wider area than before? Thus it may show up edge limitations that were not possible to be seen before.



The only small surprise I have is the existence of group H, although it only applies to two ancient low end lenses and as such not likely to be used on this camera anyway.



Now, is it too much for me to hope they shoehorn this AF system (or similar) into the 7D2?...
