All lenses are fine to focus on MX, on the DS I find that the easiest to focus is SMC M 50. What irritates me most is that often I focus meticulously only to find on the LCD that the shot is out of focus (however I admit that it is usually the case when neither the light nor the object is very contrasty). -- Best regards, Pawel ________________________________________________________________________ ____ Promocja trwa!
