[Leica] B. D. PAWS with a $699 DSLR

[leica at robsteve.com (Robert Stevens)]

B.D.

What type of AF does this have?   Are there multiple points to 
select?  I have noticed in your past few PAWs the focus has been off 
a bit.  It is sort of like a lot of the Leica D2 shots you see where 
the focus is not on the subject but somewhere else like the 
background.  In t2, it seems to be somewhere else like the 
sleeve.  On some of the shots prior to it in the gallery, it seems to 
be focused to something on the side of the frame.  In this one it is 
focused on the guy on the left of the frame ( 
http://gallery.leica-users.org/Tea-Time/T3_071205 ) .  It just seems 
odd that the focus is getting things on the side of the frame.

Here is another where the kid is oof and the mother on the edge of 
the frame is in focus.  http://gallery.leica-users.org/Tea-Time/Tbaby  .

Is this a focus point selection thing or just a coincidence that 
things on the side of the frame are sharper?
