To zmey: Focus

[JorgeCK]

Hi Kristaps,
I was trying to focus on the poles, but you are right nothing is sharp.
I think what happen is that the view finder was so bright and I have hard time detemine the correct spot to focus.
Thank you for your comments and critiques.
Take care

yup, jorge, against the sun it's hard (and dangerous!) to determine the focus point... one technique is to set the focus on another object at the same distance but away from the sun. fix the focus on that and then read the exposure from the scene you are actually shooting. looking directly into the sun through the lense: not advisable at any time :)

regards,
kristaps
