However, I have not found it easy to focus if you do not get focus-peaking to work - too low detail/contrast. john > -----Original Message----- > > On Jul 8, 2013, at 2:50 PM, John McMaster wrote: > > > And on first look, will revisit when Leica adaptor is finally released, > focussing imprecision at mid distances with longer lenses... > > > > The auto diaphragm does not matter with the EVF, I have done test shots > where I could 'see' and focus with the EVF but not a chance by r/f.
