You guys miss the autofocus part.

I've done 1 review about this baby in my own language (Vietnamese, you can find it here: https://tinhte.vn/threads/thanh-vien-danh-gia-canon-1100d-sau-2-nam-su-dung.2224878/ ). After 2 years I bought 1 used 1D II N and found out autofocus is unreliable in both cameras. Even when I choose the center (the only cross-type) point on the 1100D, it oftens misses focus at large apertures (I've experienced with the Canon 50 1.8, 85 1.8 and also 35L 1.4). That's roughly 1 complaint about this lovely camera.

After almost 4 years being with my 1100D, I've shot 50.000+ photos with it, I wanna sell it to my cousin for my own Fuji rush, but then I still keep it around the house, use it along with my 1D II N and still happy with it. Knowing its strengths, its weaknesses, I may keep it until the day it stops working. Oh, btw the rear rubber cover has worn out, I've looked around but can't seem to find the replacement.
