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!!!!

Thanks everyone, I have found the ability to magnify the image in the rear view finder.

Real men DO NOT read manuals!!!!! Just kidding, you of course, are obvious correct. I think it as a way to guarantee perfect focus.

You could be wright. I am just repeating what I saw on a video from a British landscape photographer. His technique, according to him, was used to guaranty perfect focus on a specific object in the landscape.

unless you are concerned that the camera AF and lens are not perfect and you want to manually fine tune the system.

The reason to recompose would be to perfect the focus for specific part of a landscape. It guaranties perfect focus for a specific part of the image.

It sounds like A good technique, I can't wait to try it. Using BBF and magnified live view the focus should be locked in as long as you do not us BBF again. You should be able to recompose and maintain the original focus.

You are correct. The problem is the manual has 900 pages and you can never find what you want there. But it is the old saying RTFM. Thanks for the help, I am glad some one reads the manuals!!!!

I tried it and I do not have a + or _ selection option on my canon 90d. I suspect my camera does not have that option. Thanks for your reply!!!!!

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?

Why would you settle for a DLSR when the mirrorless EVF is an option?

Thanks Basil, The sight is very interesting. Someone has spent a lot of time on a very specific subject.

Thanks for all of the input!!!! The comments by CHG Canon about buying a High speed card for a camera which is not capable of supporting the high speed is very relevant.
