Still regrets not having/using a DMR but keeping 2 systems was a bit too much.... but still in doubt..... " While I'm told that the live view on the 5D II makes fine focusing possible; I have a hard time imagining working this way for portraits, action, etc." Absolutely true!! In fact it is a disaster to need this option in most of the cases, I only use it with the 19mm, shooting interiors with nearby objects, so I can determine excactly where to put the focus . Using the Elmarit 19mm and doing architecture you don't have to focus that much.... best Herman ------ Unsubscribe or change to/from Digest Mode at: http://www.lrflex.furnfeather.net/ Archives are at: //www.freelists.org/archives/leicareflex/
