Re: Focusing using manual lenses

To get "critical focus" 100% of the time use:  manual focus, a Zacuto viewfinder and live-view.

I have Zacuto viewfinders attached "permanently" to both of my K1 cameras .

I now never have blurry images.   They are always in focus.

When shooting with a viewfinder you will need to both magnify the image on the LCD screen while focusing, AND have focus peaking enabled.  Read your camera manual on how to do these things.
