I had noticed that that left wheat ear wasn’t as sharp as it could have been. It looked like to me that the camera focused in on the top of the ear. I’m not exactly sure how that happened.
That’s weird, since usually sensors tend to focus on the nearest object from the camera. I am wondering if the camera wasn’t focusing on the ear on the right…
Were you focusing with all your AF points or were you shooting with just one point?
It can get tricky to focus at the right place when there are many subjects in the picture and you’re shooting with all your AF points.
If you were focusing with one point, I would guess that maybe a slight wind moved the ear a bit and caused the top of the ear to be sharp instead.
If there was any wind, of course… 🙂
