None of the DLSR has ECF? Not even 1D. *SIGH* Is it useful compared to conventional CF?
Thanks!

Kit said:Having used the 5, 3 and 30. The ECF on the 5 is the easiest and hasslefree to use. Probably because it has 5 points. The 30 with 7 was a bit harder but still can. The 3 with 45 is unusable.
Prismatic said:On the contrary, I find the 45 points on my EOS 3 rather useful. Considering the cross arrangement of the focusing points on the 5 and 30, the 45 points gives you more precision over which part of the frame you want to be in focus.
Also, the AF with the 45 points is a lot more accurate, since the camera takes the focusing of a point on the frame as well as the ones immediately around it for comparision.
In any case, if the 45 points seem a bit overwhelming, you can always close down the points to 11 points.
