This might be where the rubber hits the road.
It took me a moment to process this, but if this is a focus shift issue, would the manual focus gear help me at all?
Could I even use it combined with any focus peaking whether it may be in the camera or in my monitor?
Or could any wrong AF setting in the camera cause backfocusing issues or is it purely an optical problem?
The very few images I got in focus by focusing in front of the subject, did make the actual subject and area of critical focus extremely blurry looking for a moment.
So it’s pretty much impossible to tell, where the sharpest area will be, based on looking at the preview in the viewfinder or on the monitor.
Only after the image was taken, it was visible whether the focus was in the right area, when reviewing it and zooming in.
Since I was only guessing, it was very inaccurate still, but way more efficient than auto focus, since auto focus misses critical focus where it should be more than 99% of the time.
This has pushed me to the point of desperation, where I’m actually considering switching my camera setup to Sony.
This switch would take me years, and I am happy with everything else that I have.
I’d rather stay with what I have, but I’m thinking about it due to the EMWL situation. 😣
