p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Inconsistent focus on D750 with liveview


I have a D750 and have had it since November 2014. I have about 20,000 clicks on it. I mostly shoot on tripod and bracketed. I generally use liveview for focus confirmation because I can use the tilt screen. I'm 61 and it is much easier on me physically to do it this way. I always get focus confirmation, but sometimes my images are soft. Liveview has many choices for focus point like wide view, normal, face recognition, etc.

I am really in a quandary as to why I am getting random soft images after I get the green square.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

James

I always zoom 100% (or whatever it is) when I do live view focusing on my D810. Have you tried that, on an area of good contrast and light?

Yes I do as well, but it bugs me that I get focus confirmation when the image is not actually in focus. This doesn't happen often, but enough times to make me jumpy.

Nikon's CDAF LV focusing isn't the most consistent. On Nikon bodies I actually get more consistent results using traditional AF.
