The last chance ?

Re: The last chance ?

It is true from my experience that Olympus cameras stumble occasionally in AF, even for S-AF, which I use exclusively. It's a CDAF system and I think some high contrast area of the frame gets detected first and gets the AF's attention or priority, e.g. the edge of the head or ears in a back lit portrait because that part is lit up while the face is darker and have less contrast. My theory.
