Does anyone have any experience with this program? I just randomly came across it when reading up on micro adjusting with my 70D. Was thinking of picking it up.

At least get the Plus version, but I did opt for the Pro edition mainly for the ability to use target optimization. The target setup is probably THE most important part of the entire process. Also, being able to easily test sharpness at all apertures was a Pro version selling point for me. After the fact, I found the PDF reports were also nice to have as a reference. I created one for each of my lens and saved it to my hard drive.
