Thanks Amfoto1, I am using BBF so my focus will not change. I was not aware of the parfocal info on zoom lens. I will check my zoom lenses for that feature. Thanks for you input!!!!

This is why I like UHH; someone has a problem and posts it; there are knowledgeable people who help with the problem! Problem solved!
When I first started out in digital photography I couldn't photograph sunsets; I came on here with the problem and within minutes I had the answer: switch from auto focus to manual focus!

I am currently using a Canon 90d dslr camera. I watched a video buy a landscape photographer showing how he used the rear screen to insure perfect focus. He would magnify the image on his rear screen and set his focus and then recompose the image keeping his focus setting and taking the image. He was able to insure his focus was perfect. I am not able to magnify my image prior to taking my photo with my canon 90d. What am I doing wrong?
You can put your camera on "live view" if the 90D has that option - i don't have one so don't know.
Zoom in on your subject with the shutter button half way down - achieve focus on what and where you want it. Keeping the focus button half way down zoom out to your required composition and complete pressing the shutter button.
