Jamie Roberts Posted January 29, 2007 Share #21 Posted January 29, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Oddly enough, I'd say my hit rate wide open is about the same as it is on the DMR; though I have nothing longer or faster than the 50 1.4 Summilux, which I normally only shoot (for portraits) between f1.6 and f5.6... But when I have shot at 1.4, I've found the rangefinder easier to focus than the DMR. Is this because, as Andy was suggesting, Leica has set the lenses to be sharp wide open and the shift happens after DOF kicks in? BTW--what really used to kill me on the Canons was taking 3 shots in a burst to get one in focus on their fast lenses, even with enough light and autofocus.
