Dancealot Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Depends on what you are focused on.. I am into the Canon S100, now... This one looks good, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSure Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 You got me beat Dancelot. I have an S95. I don't know if it's focused but the question was am I focused. That would be a yes because I had lasik surgery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeverSure Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I have monovision. They corrected my dominant (for me, right) eye to 20:15, and my left eye to 20:60. That makes my left eye slightly nearsighted so I can read really well without reading glasses, or see really well at distance with my right eye. They say that vision is additive, and so I don't ever notice that at all times one eye or the other is ever so slightly blurry. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Tywais Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 That is one of the nice things about my Panasonic GH2 as it has a touch screen that you can touch very specifically on the point of focus you are interested in. It also includes tracking focus so if you have a non-stationary object such as a moving dog, it will focus lock onto it and ignore everything else.

FracturedRabbit Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Another nice thing about your GH2 and all other mirrorless cameras is that they are taking focus directly off the sensor and will therefore never be prone to the front/back focusing problems described in the linked article; problems that plague DSLRs, where the focusing mechanism is independent of the sensor and alignment problems can lead to out of focus shots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I am not convinced about Lasik. Better to wait until you are 50+ then have cataract surgery. http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/Cataract-surgery/Pages/Introduction.aspx Vision from inches to infinity in both eyes, with no specs and all the brilliance of the colours, you just did not realise you had lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astral Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Guilty as charged. But it is no good worrying about the camera focus, if your eyes are not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt1591 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Read the article and thought I'd DL the charts and give it a try, for giggles. Am I the only one that gets a "404 Not Found"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
