Re: The 58mm F/1.4G Thread


How do you focus general and in near distances with this lens? My lens has been at the service and I hope that the phase detection AF has been calibrated. But I would like to use also LiveView with contrast AF. In near conditions it seems that I have a front focus about 5 milimeters with f1.4 to f1.8. from f2.0 it seems the LiveView AF is ok. With LiveView I can better control the focus point or focus manual if it fails. In other conditions the little frontfokus may not be visible so much, but if I want it realy sharp I can not trust the AF in most situations.
Which focus method is better or useful with this lens?
I am really unshure, when to use which AF method or manual mode or if there is something wrong with the lens or camera (now a D500) which could be repairend by the service.
