[QUOTE="hark, post: 740121, member: 13196"] Here are a few samples from this afternoon. No Shake Reduction was utilized. With all these, the focus point was on their faces - and possibly recomposed once focus was achieved (and yes, the BBF was first locked then let go to recompose). These first two were pretty good as far as sharpness goes. Subject here is somewhat dark with low contrast. No complaints on this one. Very slight crop from the original image. [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]342741._xfImport[/ATTACH] Another subject that is somewhat dark with low contrast. Still no complaints. A little more of a crop was done here. Faster shutter speed with wide open (f/6.7 is wide open with this TC). [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]342742._xfImport[/ATTACH] For some reason, the following image looks to have back-focused. When I support the camera/lens, I try to hold it at the tripod foot or on the hood without touching the focus ring. This back-focusing is new for some reason. Simply used the jpeg SOOC and resized for the forum. No additional editing was done. No cropping. [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]342743._xfImport[/ATTACH] Quite often when it misses focus, it seems to front-focus like in this image. Simply used the jpeg SOOC and resized for the forum. No additional editing was done. No cropping. Any comments and/or suggestions will be appreciated. I tried to maintain a consistent shutter speed (one that I tend to use regularly) when possible.
