回復 20# 嘉嘉
In daytime, I use the confirmation dot inside the viewfinder (Zeiss ZE lens has the focus confirmation function). If lighting is sufficient, once you've set F>6.3 or even 11, you don't even need to focus (like the old 35mm point-and-shoot camera);
At night, when I want the focus to be in the order of an hair accuracy, I will use the live viewer. Blow it up to 10x magnification, fine tune the focus dial, hold your breath, and take the shot... 
Or, for portrait photography which large aperture is more favorable, I have to pre-set the lens to a certain focus distance e.g. 1m. Every time when I take the shot, I have to "remember" my POI is 1m in front of my lens. It takes more time for one to get used to "scene setting", i.e. "think" before you shoot.
Auto focus is not that critical for wide angle range < 35mm. Rather - contrast, color rendition, sharpness are way more important. Before I decide to purchase this lens, I've tried the 24mm f1.4 II as well. To me, I feel the Zeiss lens produces sharper, cleaner, "richer" and "sweeter" photos. |
