 Quote: Here's why - I can just nail focus faster with the red indicator - I focus very fast until I see it, slow down until I see the green hex, shoot. The red indicator can act as a "green hex imminent!" warning to you. I'll bet this is not at all as complcated as I am making it.. I really need to just try the system out for myself. I'm going to Toronto monday! Yeah! | |

Originally posted by shuttervox  Hmm, ok... So are you saying that (while using a MF lens) the red dot only apears when a subject in "it's area" of the viewfinder is ALMOST in focus? | |

| Originally posted by Lowell Goudge one thing I find with the focus confirmation, whether it is a beep or the green hexigon is that if you are not careful, you move through the focus by the time you react to it. I am planning to perminantly convert one of my bodies to a perminant M42 body, (i.e. leave the screw mount adaptor in full time) and get a split image. to me it seems the best approach  | |
