Somebody else gave me similar advice several years ago, and it seems to work. I haven't noticed about going from close to far focusing, but our eyes seem more attuned for picking out when something goes from blurry to sharp than picking out which degree of sharpness you want by rocking back and forth. Besides, if you learn to just judge when everything is sharp and not repeatedly fiddle, non-manual focusing photogs will be amazed at the speed at which you can shoot. :) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
