ISO 100 1/160 f/4.0 Original Lensbaby Shot in RAW. Converted to JPEG. Resized and uploaded. Can anybody give me some pointers on how to focus with this thing? Ugggh! I think I am running about 10 savable shots to 300 tossed!

I have a Lensbaby2 and also have trouble getting a good focus. I have aperture disks that stop the LB down that I should try... can you do this on yours? It might make achieving focus a litle easier if the subject is bright enough... Dennis POTN Book Vol4 Astronomy Image Manager and BC Member

I've never used a Lens Baby, but in low light focusing is tricky. I usually have at least a flashlight around to help me manually focus. With my 350D I have no hope of autofocus in low light like that.
