Makes sense when shooting portraits, especially shooting at f/1.2.
JR
She was shooting Some @ 1.2, 1.8, and the first image @ 3.2
She just had a problem of focusing.
And the comment about blown out highlights, i see that as shooting in high key, which isn't very distracting to the overall image. Unless we want HDR, I think it's acceptable.
But going to back to the Center point AF (or single point AF) - Shooting Wide open you MUST be careful. Because even if she is focus-recomposing her shots, @ 1.2, 1mm off results in mis-focusing. Meaning, if she doesn't follow the same exactly plane of focus, she's gonna be off. She needs to use the joystick to gain control of all her focus points, and select the point closest to the subject's eye. Center is just way too far, especially for close ups.
Shooting in portrait mode, depending on the orientation, I use the far left or right point (though still a single point) of focus.
