@Maxim88 SIGMA 40mm F1.4 DG HSM Art Focus Adjustment

It is a great lens but in my experience, it is calibrated for medium and far distance out of the factory (at least the copy I have owned).  In Sigma's term, the median distance is either 3m or 5m for this lens (I don't remember the exact as this was 5-6 years ago).  My copy back-focuses a lot when taking pictures at a close distance.  Looking at the photo you posted, it is obvious that you are taking the leaves at a close distance.

You don't need to send it back to Sigma for calibration and the focus calibration also has to do with the tolerance level of the camera you are using.  You need a lens calibration tool like LensAlign mk II, a tripod, the Sigma USB dock, and lots of time.

The process is to set the alignment tool at close/medium/far distance, put the camera on the tripod, and take a picture of the alignment chart.  You load it up on your computer and decide if it is back focus or front focus.  You use Sigma USB dock software to adjust the focus adjustment per distance.  The process is repeated so that you get pin-sharp focus directly out of the camera.  Please make sure that any focus adjustment setting on the camera is turned off (I am sure 5Ds has this feature).

這個很cool還可以自己調整鏡頭, 他可以先用live view自己先判斷一下。 -移花接木- 給 移花接木 發送悄悄話 移花接木 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 08/06/2024 postreply 16:07:21

感謝E大師的點拔,您講的 focus calibration, 已經遠遠地超過了俺的能力範圍. -Maxim88- 給 Maxim88 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 10:27:15

不過俺有一個問題請教一下E大師, 是不是每一個副廠出產的鏡頭在使用之前 都需要做focus calibration? -Maxim88- 給 Maxim88 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 10:31:20

俺的意思是針對自己所使用的 Nikon or Canon 相機 -Maxim88- 給 Maxim88 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 10:33:24

換個mirrorless 吧,從原理上排除對焦偏差 -移花接木- 給 移花接木 發送悄悄話 移花接木 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 10:38:40

不一定 -eth- 給 eth 發送悄悄話 eth 的博客首頁 (177 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 10:45:55

理論上是,有問題解決問題,沒問題,別浪費時間 -eth- 給 eth 發送悄悄話 eth 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 10:47:05

這不是副廠的問題,原廠鏡頭有同樣問題 -eth- 給 eth 發送悄悄話 eth 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 10:48:12

我再請教一個問題, 相機生產廠商在賣相機套機的時候, 它們套裝的鏡頭是否和相機進行了focus calibration? -Maxim88- 給 Maxim88 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 08/07/2024 postreply 13:23:07

都經過廠家校驗,除了鏡頭,機身也可能有對焦偏差,你需要先確定是鏡頭還是機身,補償很簡單就在相機的使用說明裏 -移花接木- 給 移花接木 發送悄悄話 移花接木 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 08/08/2024 postreply 03:24:33

Canon 5DM4 的 micro adjustment 是解決其自身的問題? 還是其配搭的鏡頭的問題? 多謝! -Maxim88- 給 Maxim88 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 08/09/2024 postreply 08:32:08

還是解決機身與鏡頭的兩者加起來共同的的問題? 多謝!!! -Maxim88- 給 Maxim88 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 08/09/2024 postreply 08:43:26

機身上micro adjustment是適配到具體鏡頭的 -eth- 給 eth 發送悄悄話 eth 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 08/09/2024 postreply 11:48:00

就是能解決 ….機身與鏡頭的兩者加起來的問題? -Maxim88- 給 Maxim88 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 08/09/2024 postreply 12:42:54

是的,但是不可以具體聚焦區間的調整 -eth- 給 eth 發送悄悄話 eth 的博客首頁 (49 bytes) () 08/10/2024 postreply 14:07:03
