Does the screen use the very center for focus? In other words are you locked into having the most important part of your subject in the center?

With my old 5D MkII, I use the center focus dot 90% of the time. Pre-focus, lock and recompose

It is a good question! I have just begun to use mine with glasses and have had a challenging time getting the focus right. BUT when I do get it right, wonderful!!! Just play with it until it suits you. (My grandkids have been known to borrow mine. 7 years old, so acute vision, utterly unlike mine!)

I use it almost exclusively to shoot macro, so the center is sharp and then the dreamy bokeh! I don't know if this helps but it's all I know.

It does to a certain extent. You can't put the screen down fully vertical, it rests at about a 30 or so degree angle less than straight up and down. I have not found that to be a hindrance in any way; rather the convenience of longer battery operation before having to charge far outweighs that difference. Of course, what and how you shoot will depend on whether or not you consider it important enough; I shoot at horse shows, so I usually have continuous focus on and I'm constantly aiming and focusing. I have no problem shooting 800 or so shots with complete confidence that I won't run out of battery power. It does to a certain extent.

No, they do not. The focus is set and you live with what it is set at. Most of the time this works out ok but occasionally it does not.

Yes it works very well. I've not had any difficulty in that area. In fact most if the time I forget its even on my screen.

No. It is high and low intensity. The focus is always the same. Press button once for high, tap on button to switch back and forth from high to low or low to high.

Yes it can be focused but don't know to what degree. I never tried to focus on anything that close. Great little camera tho

No. But it is nice to have it if you regularly switch between different settings. It also give you different options for splitting your screen.

There is no adjustment using the screen, as far as I know. The adjustment on the computer I made under internet options accessories, I think. It has been a long time. We made the print as large as possible, and the contrast for those with low vision. I was using Microsoft so not sure about other operating systems and adjustments. This screen just magnifies it more. What didn't work for my mother was that her problem was more with clarity and contrast than size. It didn't help her to just to magnify. She has optic nerve damage. I hope this will help someone.

Hard to tell from the press release and product information, eh? The Eye-Start looks like it improves focus response time on your first shot by some small amount by starting focusing when you put your eye to the viewfinder. I guess that means if you use the LCD that you just get "normal" focus time, not "improved" focus time.Hey, wait, can you even compose a shot in the LCD? Don't most DSLRs only have menu and playback on the LCD, and viewfinder for viewing through the lens to compose?

No, just one position. Sometimes I just prop something behind the screen if I need to adjust my view

The short answer is no, but in my opinion that's a good thing since you have more control over the focus and apeture. It can be pretty unforgiving though, since it has such a shallow depth of field-- great for film, rough sometimes for stills.

Pretty much... The knob on the top is labeled "focus" but it actually adjusts the magnification. You focus by adjusting the working distance by moving the Supereyes closer or further from the object on the stand. It's a little convoluted but it works.

i was confused the first time i used it. you focus with the lens attached. but i still had to get in really close to the subject in order for the camera to autofocus properly

Holding the button down halfway allows you to focus on an off-center subject. For example, to focus on an off center subject, position that subject in the center of your screen and press the shutter halfway down to freeze the focus on that subject. While continuing to hold the shutter button down halfway, recompose the image on your camera and press the shutter button down the rest of the way to take the picture. If, on the other hand, you want to focus on the subject already at the center of your screen, just press the shutter button down completely and the camera will focus on the object in the center of the screen while taking the picture.

You can widen and focus, however, its not as much as I would like, but it serves its purpose....
