While seeking an inhouse diversion on a very cold day, I set up a gray aircraft 
model in front of a black background, wanting to get a very low key image.  I 
tried two different AF lenses on my E-510 and neither could lock on and hold 
focus on the subject.  Perhaps it was the low light environment, but they kept 
changing focus, seeking something they liked.  I grabbed a few shots that were 
roughly in focus, as well as a lot that were out of focus.  

Here is the image:

Olympus E-510 with ZD 14-54 Ver I, Flash, 1/60 at f/8, RAW

Have others experienced this sort of behavior?

Comments and critiques welcomed.
