truncated focus bar

Post by cretinbob »

Any one else get a short focus bar on this one? Is this normal? I haven't seen one before.

BTW I'd call it a bad focus anyway. :shock:

It's not unusual to get a short focus bar like that. The rule of thumb would be that if you can view it clearly, go ahead. But usually, I notice that the movie doesn't go deep enough to answer. Bad Focus is usually the way.
