    I still like the single shot / single point auto focus.
    It is VERY accurate in low light situations.
    The 61 points have 41 non blinking cross points that are very sharp, I have tried the center as well as the peripheral points.
    I do not find the autofocus screen a problem, the points are red for selection then turn black, does not seem to be an issue even in low light.


    I also HIGHLY RECOMMEND to set the AF POINT DISPLAY to ENABLE to allow the AF POINT to show on playback, this will allow you to check the area that was hit for the autofocus, I find this much more reliable than trying to determine focus on the screen, this is like my focus histogram.


    I am also interested in some opinion on separating the AF function from the shutter button (a feature of 1Dx and 5DIII), I am tempted to make this setting but would like some input from other users.

    Thank you
