Realized that there are some people who dont know the existence of this green dot in the viewfinder...
if you manual focus, when its in focus, the green dot will be steady.. if it flickers, it means you are almost there but is shaking/moving forward/backward.. etc
i used to use a focus screen but now i've gotten rid of it.. prefocussing and the green dot gives me 95% spot on focus all the time..
so this is how it looks...
out of focus...
in focus!
so is this method good? well.. if you're used to it.. its possible to catch your focus pretty decently..
this is shot on a 50mm f1.2.. (a lens which i urge everyone to try if they have a chance too.. its.. erm. i dont know how to describe it. ethereal?.. after one copy i'm no longer looking at the 50 f1.4s/AFD/ais and what not)
5.6MP picture (not 10mp cuz i forgot to adjust file size)
100% crop
:heart:
