Focusing an Off-Center Subject

AF Sensitivity According to the Lens' Maximum Aperture
The EOS-1V's focusing points are all horizontal-line sensitive. However,
depending on the maximum aperture of the lens, certain focusing points can
achieve higher AF precision.
(1) With lenses whose maximum aperture is f/2.8 or
larger, the focusing points highlighted in the
figure become cross-type sensors sensitive to
both vertical and horizontal lines. The remaining
38 focusing points are horizontal-line sensitive.
The sensor's vertical-line sensitivity is three
times higher than the horizontal-line sensitivity.
With lenses whose maximum aperture is f/3.5 or
darker, all 45 focusing points will be horizontal-
line sensitive except with the L-series lenses
listed in (2) below.
(2) With the following Extenders and L-series
lenses whose maximum aperture is brighter
than f/4, high-precision AF is possible with the
center focusing point working as a cross-type
sensor. The remaining 44 focusing points are
horizontal-line sensitive (except with EF 70-
200mm f/2.8L USM + Extender EF 1.4x).
