Nikkor AF-S 70-200mm f/4 focus shift - smukec - 08-23-2014 The author of Sigma AF 70-200mm f/2.8 EX OS HSM test is writing about focus shift at 200mm: "At the long end of the zoom range, the lens shows a small amount of focus shift when stopping down (residual spherical aberration)." Sigma link: http://www.opticallimits.com/nikon--nikkor-aps-c-lens-tests/833-sigmaex7020028os?start=1 What about Nikkor AF-S 70-200mm f/4 here: http://www.opticallimits.com/nikon--nikkor-aps-c-lens-tests/785-nikonafs702004vrdx?start=1 ? If I understand correctly focus point is always at the line where is number 100 (and 15)? - at f4 (200mm) you see number 100 is in focus - at f5.6 (200mm) you see 100 is not totaly in focus, dof is going towards 90 - at f8 (200mm) you see 100 is not totaly in focus, dof is going towards 90 - at f11 (200mm) you see 100 is not totaly in focus, dof is going towards 90 So I can't have subject in focus at 200mm and f5.6, f8, f11. Is that normal? Nikkor AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8 G ED VR II does not have this problem. Number 100 is always in focus: http://www.opticallimits.com/nikon_ff/511-nikkorafs7020028vr2ff?start=1 |
