Yeap I did that. I adjusted to -10 (Thats the maximum), but its not enough.
I was shooting my mom just for testing and i realize that her face was out of focus. Her shoulder looked sharper. I was using AF by point, so I was focusing my moms face. Then I searched a little bit and I found a test chart. So I start testing the camera with the DA 35mm 2.4. (I love it). And it was so out of focus, then I Adjusted like i said (-10) And its better now (Not perfect). Then I tested with kit lens DAL 18-55mm 3.5, but with that one its just not enough the adjustment. I was shooting on window light. And I was using AWB. Advice???...
Thank you!!!... =D
When using fast primes DOF can get pretty thin and focus needs to be nailed down. I would suggest you make a test in a controlled environment with a kitlens shooting a printed focus-test-sheet. Try different light sources (hard daylight, shadow, dusk, electric light etc...) and different WB settings. Also try Live-View and contrast detect AF (instead of phase detect AF).
FF or BF can result from small tolerances in the lens assembling process, that's why the AF-fine adjust is there, to compensate that. If your camera frontfocuses beyond the internal correction range I would complain and return it.
