I just about cried when I saw my shots from my trip to Loisaba.

The focus on my 100-400 is off.....way off. I haven't had so many unusable images since my first film camera and not knowing that I needed faster film when it was darker outside.

Some shots are 1/800 at f6.3 and I can't find anything in the frame that's in focus.

I would love to send the lens to Canon to get it properly calibrated but that's not a good option from here. I've only 2.5 months left in Kenya before I head back to Ottawa, so I would rather get it calibrated from there.

Does anyone have some knowledge on how to use the microadjustment feature on the 5DMII to get my focus back?
