[QUOTE="Whiskeyman, post: 647169, member: 13556"] There are a few options; some require you to purchase equipment and/or software, but others don't. One way is detailed here: [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zE50jCUPhM[/URL] Another way is to use a medicine bottle and focus in the middle of the label and use your observation skills to determine which shot is sharpest. You'll need to load the photos from your run through the AF Fine Tune settings on your computer and view them at or nearly at 100% to get the best results, IMO. Some use a larger cylinder, such as a 12 oz beverage can with writing on it, to do the test and focus half-way between the center and the edge of the can. You'll need to have single spot focus seta and I would only do this in AF-S mode. I have used several methods and find that if you take your time and pay attention towhead you're doing and record what you see, any of the methods work. My first choice to fine tune my AF on any camera/lens combination is now to use FoCal software because it provides me with other information about my cameras and lenses. Good luck in getting your gear setup optimized! WM [/QUOTE]
