Hi Jim,

Does the Live View focusing work better than just looking at the screen?

Subject: [OM] IMG: Live View Focusing with Extension Tube

Rainy days are a good time to try new things (indoors).  I recently 
purchased a set of extension tubes.  Combining an extension tube with Live 
View focusing on my E-510, on a tripod, with a 2-sec shutter delay, I found 
that things work out pretty well.  Here is an example.

This opens up a new area for me to explore, as long as the objects are fixed 
and positionable.  It is not good for insects.
:~((
