    40D focus sensors

So how come when I use my Tamron 17-55 2.8 lens, the center focus point is still much better at focusing in low light than any of the outer sensors. Can anyone tell me why...

    Amazon - Reassurance needed please

    From kit lens to F2.8 = New camera!

    I bought the non-VC, and i find it pretty good in low light, and quick to focus. Thats compared to my 18-55 IS anyway, others may find it lackluster. Me? Love the thing, my father inlaw now wants to buy one, even though when i started togging a year ago, he said never to buy a Tamron lens...

    THE PP GAME!

    I probably could run CS5 on this PC at a squeeze. But i told the missus that it wouldn't run it, hence the importance of buying a new PC. If she sees me 'shopping' on it, she might change her mind:lol:
