F#*K!!!
I'm soooo sad and angry right now... Already won the bidding for the Mighty One and then suddenly the seller sold it to someone else. Don't even bother to apologize...
So CILAKA ini Mat Salleh, no ethics at all... Hope he drop the lense in the toilet...

very nice, i think i'm gonna do that on my L's hood also

totally pissed off at Canon service. Send it for calibration and end up back focus. DIE!!

Send it back for calibration lor. Or else just do ur own AF Microadjustment which is best anyway.

o shiat, i send in mine for service & calibrate, hope it come back better & not worse ><"....slowwwwwwwwww

well I believe that photograph has no levels, just that I shot a different genre this time. Only once, though

you dint check on the spot?

i did check on the spot. Problem was, I think there is a dependence on the light levels. Remember that the 7D now has the iFCL which is supposed to be also "color aware".

I'm not sure if this has much to do with the hit rate.

I also note that If I shoot open wide, this becomes a problem. (I shot at f4 and it was OK / Better)

Ianho : Microadjustment. I need help leh.. I also don't know for sure how to do it right. You can help to teach ah? I tried, looks like my 24-70 needs -7 or -10 to get sharp and this is using those focus-test-chart thingy. It says needs 45degree angle, I don't have tripod, how to do??

I just sent the cam to canon, I also don't know how to tell them. If I screw them up kao kao, the may screw up my camera for "revenge" (and also it will make relationship susah right?) So, I do a little of both, I screw then I pretend like very "cham" (which is true mah, imagine, how to get good shots?)

According to canon, what they do is, they "zero" it based on their "chart" and they were asking me, "so, should I based it on your pictures? (I printed out those pics and show them)"

I'm like... How I know? All I know is I need the lens to be IN FOCUS!!

I still shy shy shoot like this lar

i beg my noob eye , isit her naked ?

Hey guys.. wanna share a great photography (e-)magazine with y'all. (not sure if u guys already know this).

Best of all, its FREE!

Looks like it. Artistic nude. Nice pic though.

@myjunk i can't remember where i read it, but apparently for perfect results either you use AF microadjustment, or you calibrate your entire arsenal i.e. body and all lens.

Something to do with tolerances e.g. if your camera front focuses +2, and your lens back focuses -2, then the combination of that cam+lens = perfect focus.

But if you sent your cam in to calibrate, then canon calibrates it to 0, then suddenly now your cam + your lens not perfect anymore

No idea how true that is lar, and I also can't find the link anymore.

Just read it this morning.

>> Click! <<

I sent in both my cam and my lens lah..

very interesting read.

So this would probably explain about those people who buy lenses and keep exchanging lens after lens to get a "sharp copy".

Which would also explain the 3rd party lenses front / back focus issues - maybe their level of tolerance is bigger than camera maker's tolerance

Friends all.. how to use MicroAdjustment Feature?? Who can teach me to get the BEST sharpness?

It's very subjective when you're shooting Walls or newspaper or those focus-test-charts leh....

Myjunk, u can do a quick 2 minute AF job by shooting a halfbody shot AF on eye. Just whack -10,0,+10 n u can get a pretty accurate set up based on real world usage. Focus charts will send u to Tg Rambutan 1

shoot wide open at high shutter speed to take ur old shaky hands out of the equation too.

Yeah man.. I agree. I was up at 5am doing my photo processing and was cursing all the time and esp when I open up DPP (i just found out it's nifty feature of showing the AF points in focus) and was vomitting blood.

I then tried the focus charts and was nearly going to hang myself.
