I already posted there is a difference between accurate focussing and a photo being in focus due to deep DOF coverage. In the former, you want/need to get the exact focus distance to control the foregroud/backgroud DOF, in the latter youre not controlling anything, the subject just happens to fall ANYWHERE within the DOF at the shooting aperture. jco

And this entire stream of crap has been baiting me. I can hardly contain myself. Someone, about a thousand posts ago, said he'd been using lenses for 30 years -- was it JCO? Well, I've been using them for a hell of a lot longer than that and still can't focus the goddamn things. I have more trouble with 400mm than I've ever had with 50mm or even 30mm. And I'm used to lenses, believe me, not only those on cameras either. You can't make a rule that will apply to all and you can't even make a valid general statement about this matter either. Now lets see how many hundreds of posts this one generates. D Christian wrote: > Cotty wrote: > >> On 13/11/06, Paul Stenquist, discombobulated, unleashed: >> >> >> >>> You're correct on this JCO.
