[QUOTE="rafaelconverso, post: 65720, member: 10118"] Hi guys! Well, I just got my first DSRL (D5100) which means that I´m a newbee, so be patient... First, I don´t have the right lenses to my camera body. I should have bought the 1.8G (which provides AF) but I got the 1.8D by mistake, so I need to manually focus every single shot. That said, I really like the DOF that 1.8 aperture provides, but I just can´t get the right focus using the view finder. While the LCD shows a huge difference of focus, the view finder shows a very faint defocus effect so everything seems to be right focused. When I take the shot... I see that the LCD was right. Usually I take a picture of my little daughter, but the delay of shooting by the LCD makes me lose the best moments. That´s why I want to use the view finder. Thanks in advance. Rafael [/QUOTE]
