Re: Canon T5i Focus issues

Same issue here!

Missed focus on very close range or large apperture photos. I bought the camera outside of my country of residence and to make matters worse, I just started noticing this problem a couple of months ago, so I can't make use of the warranty. At first I thought it was the kit lense, so I interchanged lenses with my T3i and shot test shots with both cameras under exact same situations. T3i delivered crisp photos, while the T5i did not. Of course it is not noticeable when the depth of field is larger, but gets critical in some extreme situations. I mostly shoot macro, so for me it's super annoying. I found that after focusing I have to back off a little to get a truly sharp picture, otherwise my camera focuses a tiny bit behind the chosen focus point.

I think I'd better sell my crappy Canon T5i sooner than later and shift to my good old Nikon friends!
