SONY a7RII - SONY 16-35mm / f2.8
Delighted with above equipment, acquired not long ago. BUT, I am looking for tips on focussing for sharper results.
I have noticed one or two anomalies in focussing techniques, since I can no longer rely on my own eyes for precise focussing. I have set the diopter to the optimum setting for my eyes, and I use focus assist (focus zoom and pixel highlighting)—I usually manually focus. However, when setting focus according to the focus assist, I note that the focus distance indicated on the display focus distance bar bears no relation to the actual distance. For example, distant objects (many hundreds of metres away) that I would normally wind out to infinity to focus, give indicated distances of just tens of metres.
Moreover, I am somewhat disappointed with the sharpness of some of my results.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
