Has anyone encountered the need to Micro adjust lenses yet?
I purchased a 24-105 and it is amazingly sharp on the 5D mark 2 but then noticed how poorly my 24-70 focuses using the same tests. I thought the lens was broken so I tried manual focus and the results were perfect. I thought perhaps my lens may need calibration so I tried my friends 24-70 as well with the exact same results. I have set between -4 and -10 or greater micro adjust seems to \'fix\' it.
Has anyone else encountered any problems? I may manually \'calibrate\' all my lenses using the micro adjust feature.
Secondly does anyone have a great technique to help the micro adjust process? In my travels searching for answers it seems some people set up objects at varying distances and go through the different micro adjust levels.
I know this topic is done to death but I am curious to see if anyone else has any issues with their 5D mark 2.
