Originally posted by jspi Yes, I do know how to manual focus but I'm not the best. Even with a field monitor and magnified live view, the Rokinon isn't sharp. Tried indoors with a test chart and it was still fuzzy. It's the only lens I can't get focused.
I'm getting several suggestions I'll have to review in the coming days. No rush to buy.
Might be a bad copy of the lens.
Other than that, it might not look that sharp in zoomed in LV because its at f2.8.
What I do is to focus in/out to get to the sharpest of the focus options and choose that as the focus point.
Sometimes, I stop down the lens in LV to get better sharpness/dof to check.
