I don't see your name as added to the list

If I recall maxpcuser, you never responded to fatalbert and I therefore dropped you from the list. This led to my saying that if folks don't respond within a few days, to move onto the next person. If you want back on the list, let me know.

Sent PM let me know if you need anything else.

**TER-OR** · 05-25-2014, 12:20 PM

I'm done, my lenses were all pretty much spot-on. One front focused a little, but it's not a close focuser anyway, and a zoom...

So, on to the rwingsfan! (Go Blackhawks)

I got the lens align today. Will most certainly be done by Tuesday then off to pdo. Thanks again to comprock for making this happen!

I finished up this am with the lens align. Another huge thanks goes out to comprock for the use. On another note here is my opinion of the lens align system. While it does work I found it to be just like the focus tune software (which I own) very clunky. For most folks (including me) there are just too many hoops to jump through to get it right. I found correct alignment to be very difficult and finally realized that this is best done indoors in a studio, which I do not have. I can't believe someone has not been able to fashion some software that would make this a very automated task. On a plus note out of four lenses only my Sigma 105mm macro needed any adjustment with my K5iis and it was small. Off the pdo as soon as I get his info!

comprock · 06-10-2014, 06:45 AM
