Open This is most likely spam content: Lens focus correction
#1
Following on from the Sigma 30mm thread active at the moment, I'm wondering in general, do you have lenses which front or back focus? Do you use micro-adjust if available? And how much?



Of lenses I still own, I now have 4 which I need to set AF micro adjust in the camera body. The correction values I'm using are as follows:



Canon EF 35mm f/2: +3

Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II: +8

Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM: +5

Zeiss 2/50 ZE: +16



For those not familiar with the Canon system, the value ranges from -20 to +20, where 0 is no correction. A positive value puts the focus point away, a negative value brings it closer.



With all these fast lenses, the actual focus plane is somewhere forward of where the camera thinks it is. My next fastest lens, Sigma 150mm f/2.8 macro, does not need any adjustment. Nor do any of the zooms I have.
