QUOTE(jknowsit @ Mar 29 2017, 03:30 PM) Thank you but I don't understand why should I zoom in to the max since I am looking to shoot wide angle He meant to zoom in - in your liveview screen to ensure your focus point is sharp. Not the lens zoom in.  This post has been edited by Lego Warfare: Apr 1 2017, 02:03 PM |

QUOTE(pratap5233 @ Mar 28 2017, 04:57 PM) Change to manual focus and use live view. Point at a star and zoom in to the max. Then adjust your focus ring till it is pin point sharp absolutely right this is a correct way to get sharp mw pic |
