[QUOTE="guillermo_arp, post: 512397, member: 40887"] Ok this is weird... I rarely use live view, actuall I never use live view. I performed a quick test, far from ideal conditions, right here on my desk shooting at a book. I noticed that the if I use live-view and Autofocus, it works ok (after 10 shots focus is spot on). But if I shoot at the same spot, without live view I'm back to square one with the camera focusing aprox 1 cm to close. I know that live view uses contrast detection and normal shooting uses phase detection, could my problem be with the phase detection system? It's sensors or something like that? If the focusing ground glass is out of adjustment, how hard is it to fix? I mean, is it routine or mayor surgery? (Assuming that all it needs is an adjustment). [/QUOTE]
