Very Nice example. That G2 is a work horse and a real favorite among the Hoggers.

I shall have to rent one or borrow one for a weekend and try it myself.

Taken with the Nikon 200-500 on a Nikon D500, NEVER any fine tuning on any Nikon lens.


I had an adjustment of +12 on a canon 300 2.8 and 50D ....

Did you check the af for accuracy against the focus in live view? Or with a target for front or back focus?

If you want it right focus manually...

The OP’s penta mirror camera is ill-suited for manual focusing.

There is a big advantage for mirrorless, NO MORE FINE TUNING NECESSARY.
