jaapv Posted March 20, 2013 Share #3 Posted March 20, 2013 How do you find the focussing with the EVF on the 180, JC? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc_braconi Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share #4 Posted March 20, 2013 How do you find the focussing with the EVF on the 180, JC? If I understand well your question, Better to work with a tripod or a shoulder stock or high ISO and medium aperture IMHO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Geschlecht Posted March 20, 2013 Share #5 Posted March 20, 2013 Hello Jean Claude, Nice photos. Wouldn't it be easier to focus wide open & then stop down like with a pre-set lens? Do you do it the way you do because there is a degree of focal shift with the 180mm Apo? Best Regards, Michael Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Regards, Michael Thanks Michael The liveview and the viewfinder works the same from wide open to narow one. The processor is able to correct in relation to it is not esay to stabilise the set if you use the focus peak. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc_braconi Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share #7 Posted March 20, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Using the Viso in between made the stabilisation more easy and the shutter can be set to just before releasing by adjusting the arm screw.

Chris, I have Novoflex R to M and Oly OM to M adapters. Will they not work? Are they unavailable? They work on the M9, and they're built very well!
