Thanks @ryanyboy After all these years of shooting at the centre focus point, this is likely to be quite a learning experience!

I quite agree @sk66 I think it sounds like a combination of factors that have been highlighted to me here...I use focus/recompose too so I think I may need to use back button in future! Thanks so much for your help. An indeed a big thank you to everyone else who replied :-)
