[QUOTE="Mister, post: 52913, member: 9348"] Recently I started doing it mostly by eye and stopped looking at the dot TOO MUCH. You need to understand that if you are about to take a photo of a "moment", or something that is about to pass by you, you better be ready to just shoot at it. If you just keep starring at the confirmation dot, forget it! You'll never get shots. Unless the subject will wait for you or if you are shooting in really low light where you can barely see the subject, then you can look at the dot to see if you are in focus. I would say that between 1.4 and 2.8 the dept of field is so shallow that sometimes, even with the confirmation dot the photo might come out blurry. But with time you will get used to it and you will get better and better at it. You'll be able to know how your camera and lens behave together to achieve focused photos. It is very easy. Is kind of hard to explain, you'll understand what i am saying when you first get your lens. [/QUOTE]
