I switch focus points regularly while I'm shooting. And some of my jobs involve close to 1000 frames a day. Today, I shot some corporate portraits for website with studio lights. I was able to fire away in rapid sequence without waiting for a buffer. Gotta have all those things working for me. On the other hand, I rarely need low light capability, and when I do I get good results at 3200 and acceptable results at 6400. Not as good as Kx, but in every other way, the camera appears to be a considerable upgrade. Paul
