[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 75973, member: 6548"] One trick that works very good and that pro's use is to open her wide and let the lens AF on the subject. Lock the focus then stop down one stop then shoot. This will ensure the subject is in focus. This is what I am doing nowadays just learned the trick a couple of weeks ago and I am having success with it. Before when shooting wide open I would get the eyes in focus or the nose or ears or whatever and the rest would be a blur. It ain't happening to me anymore! :) Always use your widest aperture when focusing because the shallow DOF really helps to nail the focus then stop down to get more depth. Practice it you will be amazed. [/QUOTE]
