After I posted that the eyes and focusing were not co-dependent and was corrected, I decided to try it for myself. I put the camera on a tripod and carefully focused on an object. With "eyes" the indicated distance was 10 feet. Without eyes, the indicated distance was 5.5 feet. Thus the eyes are necessary. (Unfortunately the true object to film plane distance was 8 feet). I guess I'll smoke the crow and serve it with a side of humble pie. Hopefully the searchable archives will soon be updated past May. I think that Marc posted a method of calibrating the DR "eyes" a short time ago. In supplication, Bill Larsen
