Yes Bart, that is the infinity focus problem. It's caused by increasing the flange distance due to the adapter. Best thing you can do is put a mark on the focus ring where infinity actually is when...

Nikon to Canon EOS Adapter

Anyone using a good Nikon-Canon adapter?

I tried a Novoflex one a while ago, but thought it was very expensive and a bit of a pain to use.

$100 says you shot that indoors?

Is ProRes a supported edit format in FCE? I thought that it just supported HDV and DV, in which case you'd have to use the Apple Intermediate Codec.

Have a look in Easy Set-up. If it's there you...

The histogram is one of the most useful tools on a digital camera. I use it shooting stills, on the EX1 and on RED.

I'm amazed that so few people understand it, let alone use it.

First tip: don't look at the sun though the viewfinder, especially with a telephoto lens.

Second tip: shoot manual and expose to the right.

Third tip: don't use auto white balance.
