Re: Focus Problems

If all your lenses are off it probably means your cameras are off. I know my 80D was pretty off and even a 10-18mm needed MFA and the depth of field on it is already pretty big. The Canon 85mm /1.8 was extremely reliable for me and with static subjects my hit rate is usually in the high 90's percentage-wise.

The focus issues is probably not as obvious in landscape due to the big depth of field. Shallow depth of field will make the issues more obvious.

I have a 50mm 1.4 that works terribly with my 80D using one-shot AF but it works great using AI Servo. Maybe try AI Servo. It works fine even with still subjects and it's worth a shot.
