[QUOTE="Mike150, post: 133249, member: 2287"] Just a "small" tip I learned a while back is to find an object at infinity during the daytime. Focus on it and mark the lens with tape (I use painters tape). One piece of tape on the focus ring and one on the body. Make a mark across the two pieces of tape at infinity. At night, when in manual focus, break out the flashlight and align the marks on the tape. Voila... You're in focus. (for the moon that is). Note... Painters tape does not leave any sticky residue if you remove it after your shoot. [/QUOTE]
