LOL!!! The focus-confirming adapters have always worked for me without any trouble, and without live-view. They work very well, and I'm often shooting the 80 1.4 @ 1.6 handheld while standing on a bed or something similarly unstable.
Trust the adapters, Tim. Or your eyes

So far both are rather hit and miss, though the hits are very cool if outnumbered!
Which adaptors do you use? Mine is ok-ish but really, to get an 80mm lens to focus at F1.4 would be way, way, way beyond its aspirations!
