Bob,

Being a MF guy like you are, you should know about focus shift after 
focussing and recomposing.  At lest according to Hasselblad and their 
reasoning for their True Focus System. ;)

Tina,

Your (and anyone else's) opinion would be valued. Here was my test, on a
tripod, leveled, cable release, etc...
http://www.rgaphoto.com/test/content/L1000304_large.html
I focused on the white button on the far right, middle row. It appears to
be a bit over 20cm off at close (though not closest) distance.

What would you do?
Thanks!
Bob
