View Full Version : Focus point question

Is there a way to get breeze (or any other software of this nature) to show the original focus point that one actually focused on, before recomposing? If one does a lot of focus lock shots and then subsequent recomposing, breeze only shows where the focus point was at the time of the shot. Is there any hope that somehow breeze can pick up from the camera where the shot was originally focused and be able to display that?

Thanks!

unless I misunderstand your question. I must not understand your question. :confused:

It's an issue of when focus lock occurs, and what that means. If I face North, focus the camera (however your camera does that, let's use the ever popular half-shutter press method), then turn 180 degrees and face South and take the picture, what's recorded is the focus point that was active when focus lock was achieved. Whatever that "sees" now that I'm pointing in a completely different direction is something else entirely.
