Yes, that's an ongoing problem. Low-light focusing with a manual
focus lens. I recently purchased a homemade split screen, but it
doesn't seem to work well with my FA or DA lenses and autofocus.
Any suggestions?
Forget the split screens. AF in low light is generally at a
disadvantage. Practice manual focusing with the standard screen. The
more you do, the better you get at it.
BTW:
Michael,
I took your original color image and did a little adjustment to it in
Photoshop, produced a color and B&W version. If you use Photoshop
CS2, you can get the .PSD file to see what I did specifically.
