Recent Auto Focus Adjustment

Here is an example of a recent Micro Adjustment I did on a 5d Mark II with a Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L I USM lens.

Click on the image to see it larger.

The Auto Focus was off by 10mm (front focusing) and if you are shooting wide open that could be the difference of the bridge of your nose being in focus versus your eyes.

*Update*

I used a Datacolor SpyderLensCal Autofocus Calibration Aid. You can find them at BHPhotoVideo: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=736849&is=REG&Q=&A=details

Photoverse

I recently found a great app for my Iphone!

Have I mentioned???

I bought a Epson 7890 about a month ago! It does some incredible printing. The quality is great and the prints are awesome. The Nozzle don't seem to clog as much and can switch between photo black and matte black at almost no cost.

Do you need a Canvas, Vinyl, Banners, Posters or Fine art prints. Call or email me for a quote!

New year resolution and a thought...

I must say I have slacked in keeping the blog updated... and I apologize. I love Lightroom and learning about it but it took a back seat over the last few months.

Quick thought:

Publish services, Have you found a use....? I love the concept but I must say it has been difficult to find a use until I bought my apple TV.

I have a personal catalog, I have been use the flagging system when going through my images. At some point I realized that I could create a smart collection within published services.

I then created a "Hard Drive" Published services which used the smart collections and would grab all of the flagged photos and export them to a folder. My apple TV is pointed towards that folder so when it goes to the screen saver it grabs all the images in that folder and displays them on our TV.

Its a great way for our family to view our pictures.

Feel free to contact me via email - paul@weinrauchphotography.com for any questions or clarifications.
