I just downloaded and ran the free plug-in Show Focus Points, and it seems to work very well.

Below is an untouched NEF shot from Cape Cod last week. You can see where the camera focused - the red box.

Google Show Focus Points, and you'll find the download site.

Yeah, that is a great plug-in, and for free! It's a good way to test your camera and see if it's focusing the way you think it is.

Jerry - Many many thanks for posting this. I downloaded, installed and immediately see not only the focus points but the actual distance and hyperfocal distance in the text.

I think eventually this little plugin is going to help improve what I do behind the lens big time.

I'm surprised that Adobe didn't add this feature.

Will it work with camera raw?

Got it with the editing software that came with my Pixma Pro100.

I wonder if I got it. I guess I must have. I'll have to look at the disc.

Does this just show metric equivalents?
