When close focussing, the small difference in position between the lens and viewfinder does cause a difference in the relative locations of near and far objects in the viewfinder vs. the lens. Some folks have learned to move the camera up and to the left a bit to move the lens to where the viewfinder was to compensate for this. It's really not exactly what we were discussing before, but it's worth noting. -Charlie Charles E. Dunlap Earth Sciences Dept. University of California Santa Cruz, CA 95064
