Quite agree with you. One of the biggest bugbears with my HS10 at higher magnifications into dense foliage is being sure what the camera is actually focusing on. It sure likes to focus on adjacent hard surfaces at the same focal distance at times instead of the subject

Did you try resizing the focus box? Sometimes smaller works better for focussing on objects surrounded by other things(unless its the smallest). I am assuming you can do this on HSx0? If not, nevermind.
