I didn't follow very well for the details of all communications but I just
tried focusing the 24/2 at F2.8 with the 5D II at 10x liveview, I can't
differentiate focus between 5 and 6 meter.
Repeated the test with the EPL-1 with 14x view on the 1.4MP viewfinder, I
can only marginally differentiate objects of 5 and 6 meter, the movement on
the lens focusing scale is less than 0.5mm.
