I have a Canon D50 with 100-400 f5.6 USM IS long lens bought in October 2009. Everything was fine until about a week ago when I found it impossible to focus on my subject (always tends to be birds). The image would lock-on when focusing then blur as soon as I pressed the trigger home. I rest the camera to factory default thinking that I had, perhaps, unwittingly touched something. Then again, earlier this week, I had an exposed view of a "Common Roller" at the top of a dead tree and try as I might I just could not focus on the bird. Above the sky was a clear blue (in Spain) and very warm. The battery was within an hour or much less of expiring.
The camera was set to AV at 100 ISO with A1 servo and spot metering. The lens was set to AF and 6.5 to infin.
Any suggestions about what might be going wrong?
