[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 274077, member: 13090"] I'm not sure I'm understanding what you are asking... I was trying to help someone who seemed to be having a focus issue, I'm not having any focus issues personally. Your issue, though, *could* be one of technique. Just a guess but I wonder if the camera isn't trying to re-acquire focus when you press the remote release. I don't have my remote here with me at the moment so I can't test that theory myself... However, when using a remote shutter release, I like to achieve focus, [I]then lock focus using the switch on the back of the camera[/I], then I take the shot. This is just something I do out of habit but now I'm wondering if this is reason I do that. Of course sometimes it's easier to put the *lens* into "M"anual focus mode, instead of using the switch on the camera, but you get the idea. Make sure your camera isn't trying to re-acquire focus when you press the remote. It might be, and in so doing, focusing at times on something other than what you intended. If this ISN'T the problem then we'll look elsewhere. I hope something in there that helps... [COLOR=#ffffff]...[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
