I have to go along with this line of thought. I shoot sports for various publications and compete with the very best shooters out there. I bought this camera as a tool to allow me to continue to provide the best images possible to my clients--I could care less about keeping pics for myself or counting pixels crap. I am simply amazed that this camera would have a \'certified\' issue on one of the most if not most important features-autofocus. Rob G. can re-create the problem all day long in conditions that are very familar to many of our assignments and thus the camera is not suitable for work that is fairly normal. It is one thing to advertise a product as a consumer product and bad enough if it has weaknesses, but it beyond honorable to sell to people trying to make a living off their craft only to find out it is flawed with no certain fix in sight. Can I trust this camera during the upcoming MLB season--NO. They can keep my money if they simply FIX THE camera. Otherwise, I would prefer to have my funds back and will wait for the next version--albeit I won\'t be at the front of the line for that model.
The \"N\" model that I have does focus better in AI than the new model. The new model is a better camera except it takes more out of focus pictures which wipes out any other advantages it has. Canon won\'t lose all their share to Nikon because of this and they know it. Also whatever ultimately fixes the problem most likely will be accomplished via a re-design or going back to a prior design--so I doubt we will see a magic download soon. But this will dramatically impact the \'success\' of this model as pros avoid it. The new 1DS M3 shares the same focusing design, so it will have the same issue--beware. $8 grand is too much for a camera with a major design problem.
