That's what mine is set to do and what I want it to do. The camera clearly thought something was in focus, but there was nothing at the focal distance it shows, not even at the edge of the frame. |

Set that cam up again on the tripod. Use your autofocus...zoom in...zoom out...do everything except move that cam.
Use timer release and shoot 20 pics of a natural NON MOVING subject like a fire hydrant or mailbox
By natural...I mean something other than a grid or such.
See what results.

Thanks for your interest, Tiny. I haven't had time to do any serious tests though I took some handheld shots of textured walls outside today, as well as tripod-mounted shots of some of the trees (bonsai in training) that I was pruning. I haven't downloaded to the computer yet, but on the camera screen they look okay. I would really like to find something at home that my 7D struggles with so that I can try the same shot with my 400D and see how it reacts. Unfortunately none of the totally unfocused shots I've posted have been taken at home, so I can't repeat them. |
