[LRflex] Re: Studio shot?

Can you, on the E3, adjust manually after focus has been made auto, or easily and ergonomically "freeze" the focus before framing? I find the latter difficult to perform on the L1 as the button is badly located and you always risk getting your thumb into your eye when you try.

Thanks, Slobodan! I should have thought of that. I was using the "center weighted" focus, which seems to work well for me, in most cases.... but not this one.




try the center single AF spot for a while David...I think you will much prefer it...

its mucha mora  lika leica...

anythingthing else is not only a compromise, it's a virtual unknown...with only the camera making the variable compromise...Steve
