Re: D4/ D800(E) - Left AF Problem
In reply to bachie, Apr 18, 2012

Today tested my D800 with the 85mm 1.4D and had excellent fucusing at all points center, left and right using single point AF-S mode and wide open ie F1.4 to F8. No issues at all - Serial # 8000xxx. However, had severe focus issues with the D7000 earlier which I returned so can imagine that QC is not ideal at Nikon.
