Good day,
Ok, so this made me wonder:
If you add a lens correction in (for example) a Nikon D850, I assume then, from that point forward, as long as the function is turned on, when taking photos, using the viewfinder and that designated, corrected lens, the camera will use and make the corrected focus adjustment, as it should.
But, when using the same camera in live view mode, which uses the rear lcd screen, which is more accurate for focusing, due to reasons previously mentioned and explained, does the camera still make the correction that you have stored for that given lens?
In other words, is the micro focus correction only applied when using the VF and disabled for live view??
It does seems that it should work that way. But?
I hope some of you very smart uhh’ers, can clarify this for me.
And also, out of curiosity (I only have Nikon lenses) for lenses like sigma, which are corrected using the accessory external dock, wouldn’t that lens provide the correction, regardless of focus mode, since it doesn’t know which mode of focus, that you are using??
Thanks in advance!
And to all, a very happy and healthy New Year.

Hi, have you tried using a “my pillow”, they make a small travel version, or you can just use the filling from one, to fill an existing bag. That would create a very light weight support. If it can cradle our heads, it should work with our cameras. And if you do keep the pillow intact, it can help keep you comfortable, while waiting for the perfect lighting, composition, subject, weather, etc. to all come together!! (Does is ever?? I’m usually happy with almost ok!)
Personally, I bought about eight pounds of different beans, in 2 pound bags. I left them in the sealed bags and placed those bags inside zip lock plastic bags for further protection. I use them inside a commercial weight bag for light stands, booms, etc. (under $10.00 on eBay, etc.) It has served me well and I can adjust the weight if necessary by removing individual bags.
Happy shooting and happy and healthy holiday season to all of you very knowledgeable people! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, all year
