Hi all experts, need some advise on focusing please. I am using Nikkor 35mm f1.8 DX. When I tried to take pics with f1.8 using A setting, sometimes I am not able to get a sharp focus on the face for portrait shots after focus and then frame. The sharpness could be on the shoulder or chest area instead. I set my camera to AF-S and I press half shutter and hold and do framing. Could it be that the shutter speed is too slow? Please help. Thank you.
where did you focus on the subject and at what aperture?
also when you use the kit lens, are you using the same aperture?
suggestions:
place a ruler on the table at a fixed distance btw you. use both lens to focus on same spot e.g. 25cm at the same aperture e.g. f5.6. view the results to see if both are in the same focus zone.
