Focus Issues

On a recent shoot (DVCPro50 to FireStore), inside a home, we were having some issues with focusing. In Auto Focus mode, sometimes it would drift back and forth as if we were in very low light and it was looking for an edge with contrast. After switching to Manual Focus and HOLDING the focus ring by hand, the focus would slowly drift off. What the hell is going on with that?

After powering the camera down, it seemed to work properly for a while.


FYI - The lighting consisted of two Arri HMIs, two Divas and some extra tungsten lights too.
