Originally posted by knoxploration The answer when using a tripod (ie. shooting with SR "disabled") would have to be yes, the image sensor is centered -- otherwise the available range of compensation adjustment wouldn't be the same every time, as it'd depend on where the starting point was.
Obviously it's important for folks making the profiles to remember to disable SR (use self-timer with MLU).
Just to be clear (to people following the thread), using a tripod as such doesn't switch off SR, but indeed the 2 second self-timer with MLU does. In creating the profiles I posted here, I used that latter setting, so SR wasn't working in my case.
I can see falconeye's point (though I don't fully grasp his deduction of the algorithm
). I have never looked for and/or noticed the misalignment of my DA21, and I cannot say in what degree it's serious or not, but for me it isn't. As I have commented on the various places where I posted the profiles, I expect it normal that sample variation in lenses can have an impact on the profiles the specific lenses are used for, but I have no way of judging the nature of this impact (noticeable or not). I will follow this aspect of the thread with great interest and hope I'll end up understanding!
