i briefly saw a few things today at lance's get together re focusing.
1. the distometer D5: i ordered one after seeing Woody's. I had no idea it had a video screen with crosshairs where you are aiming the laser, and it zooms! this will get your distance number, eliminating one variable. may need a tripod adapter as it is tough to hold it still at long distance measuring
2. the Arca fine focus ring and look-up table: looks like with #1, above, this will work very well
3. the alpa HR lens rings: they read out directly in distance and closely enough marked to work very well also with #1
4. focus mask on the IQ180; you snap a shot and peep it, it shows with a highlight exactly what is in focus. seems like a great feature, especially if using T/S
