Re: AFS-S issue - Returning my XT5

If you haven’t returned it yet, I’d try testing with IS turned off, ES, on a tripod.

My XT5 is performing well, but I have noticed some unusual behavior occasionally. That is, focusing in AF-S mode using the half press of the shutter button, the focus appears dead on until the split second before shutter release. In that split second I can see the image shift slightly, and the final results of the image are exactly what I witnessed in the viewfinder.

This mostly happens with my Tamron 18-300, and I suspect it has something to do with OIS or IBIS, but I’ll make an effort to try other lenses and isolate the cause.
