C-AF if very useful in tracking moving object. I try this after the firmware upgrade. I use the EP1 with 50-200 lens and shoot at 200mm at a running kids.. the result is good. everyone should read the manual on when to use Saf and when to use Caf. otherwise will end up complaining oh i cant get this shot..or tat shot..

and remember 200mm is like 400mm in FF equivalent and i shoot it without monopod..just handheld from my apartment which is 6 storey high through the window.

Oh, I see....

But you're using tele wor. With wide depth of field, I'm sure its easy to lock focus with contrast detection since
there's so many contrast area with wider DOF.

Can you try your CAF with limited DOF like with bigger aperture (f/2.8 or bigger) where the object and surrouding is further?

ok wait till weekend first hmm which lens should i test it on? 12-60 f2.8?

you should own OM lens.....
The colour is just as nice as the pro lens colour......
Especially the 135mm f2.8....Damn creamy bokeh.
Try to ebay it......get 1 from there....

Nikon old lens is not as good as OM lens.

YOur manual skill is not good....dude.
YOu need alot of training......
