DO you compare the *ist D in a single centered Af mode or with all set on ? I remember something about the MZ S and the Z1p : The MZ S is faster and can "catch" a flying aircraft and follow it during all the show in Automatic mode. That is why I am very surprised about the lack of success with the *ist D in AF performances
