Maybe so, but I had yet to find a use for it. How can it work when the 
moment you stop tweaking the focus, in continuous, it takes off again? The 
F5 is so fast, that I'd have a hard time keeping up with it. But maybe I 
just haven't tried hard enough?

Nikon, though, doesn't have images stabilization, a big plus for Canon.
