Canon (Redesigned) AF System

by ThierryMarch 3, 2010 Cameras

Canon introduced a complexe AF system back to the EOS 1D MArk III giving the user (you) more control on the camera. Aside from the debacle of the AF system itself, the idea of taking more control of the camera  is really interesting and less forgiving. To make the most out of it, YOU really [...]
