Yesterday I went out again and tried to take some narrow focal length shots of flowers on a hill. Usually I'm very good at these...but NONE of them turned out! I was devistated. Why couldn't I get it to work. My view finder showed perfectly focused flowers. Sigh. My focus has always been off with this one and I just couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong!
Today I went out again, practice, practice, practice...maybe I couldn't hold my telephoto still enough, maybe he wobbles a bit in the wind. After taking a few shots of a wild rose, I found the answer. Right near the view finder there's a dial to adjust for eyesite. So you don't have to wear your glasses when shooting, I imagne someone like my Mom who needs reading glasses would benefit from this feature (and me in a few years!) but not really for near-sited types like me. Well I clicked that dial down all the way and what do you know! Focus! Woot! Now, I'm excited! :) :) :) Here's some flower shots from the day.
