Re: Sigma DP2 Merrill

It would greatly help if the lcd would provide the current exact focus distance in meters and a fraction of meters. Why is it not being done already? How hard could it be to add it to the next firmware release?

To my knowledge, Sigma Photo Pro 5 does not show focus distance information. Why?

ACDSee shows focus distance for xcf images, but I often suspect that the focus distance values shown by ACDSee are much smaller than the actual focus distance. I have had images where by eyesight (from the actual place and from eyeballing the image later on) the focus distance is about 15 meters, but ACDSee shows about 7.5m for focus distance. The lens multiplication (1.5x) seems not to be enough to get correct results.
