Zoals ik bij mijn vraag over het Thom Hogan eBook voor de D200 al zei werd ik getriggerd door een stukje in de D200 review van Thom:
"The D200's autofocus system is actually very difficult to describe clearly. I've come up with a number of interesting observations and idiosyncrasies that are too elaborate for this review (obviously, they'll be in my eBook). Most of those derive from the fact that the AF sensors in the D200 are just much different than you'd expect from Nikon's description of them. First, there are only seven (not 11), though at least two of these apparently have multiple personalities, which is where the wide versus narrow AF area mechanism comes from. The shape of the sensing areas is also much different than you'd expect from Nikon's descriptions. This is almost certainly going to cause the all-automatic users some grief, as the AF system will do things they aren't expecting. However, once I finally tuned into the subtle differences the underlying AF part makes, I found my own focusing performance improved dramatically."
Oftewel:
- De D200 zou niet 11 maar 7 focuspunten hebben, waarvan er bij een aantal gedeeltes worden gebruikt als apart focuspunt.
- De vorm van de AF-sensoren zou anders zijn dan uit de beschrijving van Nikon zou blijken.
Is er iemand die hier meer over weet?
