I have only used the original F and the F5, but none of the intermediate models,
so I can't comment on them.  The F5 is definitely very fast and accurate in AF,
however, so whatever was wrong before has apparently been fixed now.

It's certainly not too late in the digital realm.  Nobody has any competition
for the D1 thus far.
