Re: canon SL2

I had a T5 and found that once I got better lenses I had problems with auto focus.  In live you the focus was perfect on the T5 because it uses dual pixel autofocus in that mode.  Through the viewfinder it never got perfect focus on certain lenses.  As soon as I upgraded to the 6DMII everything changed.  The autofocus system was better, and if it wasn't achieving perfect focus the better cameras have autofocus micro adjustment.  That's probably what you need and the SL2 likely does not have it.    Consider upgrading the body to a 7D or 7DMII or if you're willing to make the investment and R7.  Don't give up.
