I think I focused on the right-hand eye - my right hand - in both of these.. http://gallery.leica-users.org/B-D-COLEN-PAW/Qtip1 http://gallery.leica-users.org/B-D-COLEN-PAW/Qtip2 Both were shot with the E-500, 11-22 mm zoom at 11 (35 mm equiv is 22 mm) - f 2.8, 400 iso. This result suggests to me that any focusing errors in those subway shots were mine, and had to do with train motion, my motion, and shooting in haste to avoid being punched - :-) - and had nothing to do with the camera. And, yes, her name is Qtip - she's all white with a smudge on the top of her head. I kept trying to force every one to call her Mona, because she was doing that constantly until she was, uh, altered. But needless to say, I lost out on that one. :-)
