You can zoom all the way (10x?) and still do focus peaking. Not sure when that would be relevant. When you zoom, obviously you are only seeing a small portion of the scene, so either you compose with the critical element in the absolute center, or you spend time moving the focal point around in order to do fine Focus Peaking on that element. Maybe in some kind of macro or still life or product shots. Anyway, my quick look says it would work, my quick reaction is that I am not sure it would be worth the hassle. I’ll have to try it out next time I do landscape stuff from a tripod…
on my partner's older Panasonic GH1, which doesn't have focus peaking, you can easily move the area that is zoomed for manual focusing, so you don't have to center the desired critical focus target
can't the K3 do that? -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
