[QUOTE="hark, post: 721696, member: 13196"] There might be another option. If your lens has some type of distance scale on it, read the directions on how to understand it. You should be able to set the lens (in manual focus) by using the scale. But like I said, let me know your widest lens and its widest aperture, and I can plug in the info to my app. Once you determine where infinity will work based on distance, you should be able to just set the lens manually with your hands based on its distance scale. Personally I don't use the distance scale. When I shot 35mm, I absolutely did and would set my lens for a hyperfocal distance. But with these newer DSLR lenses, they cut back on the info contained in the distance scale. They aren't nearly as comprehensive as they used to be. [/QUOTE]
