No doubt, you can get 'perfectly' focused photos...to the limits of the 
autofocus (something should always be in focus ;-), but you can't select 
exactly where you want it to autofocus...I can give you hundreds of 
situations where your autofocus will fail.  I am not saying autofocus 
doesn't have it's place, and doesn't work acceptably for certain 
situations...  This is just a fact, and I am amazed that it's being 
disbelieved!
