He is all ove the place in focus, usually in the hair near her ears. It doesn't seem to me that a cameras focus can drift that much from lens to lens. For example, one of the other 90 mm shots was dead on., while the 85 looked like it missed focus completely. The short rf base affecting 90mm doesn't seem to be an issue among V/C users. - I think it was pilot error. - SonC -- In a message dated 7/7/2004 7:09:50 AM Central Daylight Time, bladman99@yahoo.ca writes: I'm not saying it was a lens fault. It looks like the camera isn't focusing where it should be. Why were these photos even posted in the first place? Perhaps the text on the site explains what is going on, but to me these photos don't serve any useful purpose other than make the camera look really bad. Or perhaps it shows the limitation of the short rangefinder base? What's going on? Yes, I was being sarcastic. Good grief... -dan c.
