I can't believe how many shots I've missed with my R9.

I just got back a roll, and using the 35-70 f4 zoom, missed easy shots 
of my 2 year old son looking right into the lens and standing still.  
The shots look out of focus.

I think I used f4, so there should have been enough depth of field to 
deal with his face, and it was a sunny day so I think the shutter speed 
was fast enough.

I wonder if the focusing screen is just not right for me, and my half 
century old eyes.

The shots at infinity look okay.

Any other R9 users with similar problems?

Vick
