I wish reviewers did more in depth tests on AF. As things stand, we just have results from an artificial test, and the reports from dissatisfied people, whose dissatisfaction can range from unrealistic expectations to user error to bad copies. If DPR has taught me one thing, it's that user opinions need to be taken with a grain of salt more often than not.

Call me cynical, but I trust user opinions more than professional reviews. User reviews are based on a huge data set that professional reviewers cannot have. You need to average a lot of them to clean up the noise but the end result is worth it.
