Hi,


Loving the 5D Mark II but I have some issues:


1. The AF is painstakingly slow (I shot a documentary at center Af point and when I used the 400D I had a LOT better luck with it. What is up?).


2. The images at 21mp are not as sharp as I want them to be. At first I thought it was my 24-105 not focussing correctly. I saw very sharp images from a 24-105 from my friend's camera. I mounted it on a tripod to make sure I wasnt shaking. Still unsharp. lens id going back. BUT: The 16-35 is exhibiting the same problem. But a front-back focus test says it is spot on. Yet I am utterly unimpressed with the sharpness of it.

Other than that I am happy. Color and contrast and low light performance is amazing (I shot a series at 3200 ISO and the noise levels were way below what I expected them to be. Yet unsharp).





Advice? Am I personally doing something wrong? I upgraded from the 400D (especially for the low light performance of this cam and to move from amateur to a prosumer) but I got better pics from the 400D (more 'keepers').
