This locks up the mirror. Use the + button on the rear upper right to get to 5x and then 10x. Use manual focus to focus precisely on what you want. wow....I had no clue lol. I am at work so will check that out when I get home. Thanks! *Lisa*

How do you go to 10x magnification????? DO you mean in PP? GreanJeans explained how to use Live View mode. It lets you really get in close to fine tune the focus. The problem with auto focus is it picks up on some seriously weird spots some times. So in the case like you had with three levels (background, bush, twigs) the auto focus(AF) chose what it though you wanted. Name is Ron.

lkk324 Member 246 posts Joined Jan 2013 Location: Maryland More info | Thanks Ron The F stop and numbers seems backwards to me. I have to think about it every time! As for the PP question it was because I wasn't sure about magnifying the image 5x...10x...I didn't know you could do that on the camera so I was thinking maybe you meant in post processing.....Handy too to know nowl!! I am still trying my hand at the pp part. I have the trial of elements downloaded and been messing with that. *Lisa*
