Thanks useful information: 1
I took some shots last night of the Moon, and while I got some nearly focused, most are way out. How do I get the focusing perfectly crisp. Is it possible to use the Laptop to focus in better. From what I've read it isnt, but they were written a while ago.
Use Live View if you have it.
Make sure you turn off AF. Focus to infinity or close enough.
Softness may also be due to leaving IS turned on or having too light a tripod amongst other things. Use a remote or self timer to minimise vibration.
Cameras with live view will usually support viewing via a laptop.

Olympus Pen F with Metabones Speed Booster and Laowa 12mm f/2.8 or Voigtlander 10.5mm f/0.95 or Nikon D800 with the Laowa 12mm f/2.8. The need to keep in touch with the past is a Nikon Photomic FTn or Nikon F2A and a Nikkor 25-50mm f/4 AI

Worked it out with Live View through the Laptop. Cheers for that, new it was simple. Just got a Sigma 70-200 f2.8 EX DG OS and got a couple of nice shots.
I've added an image in the Member section for you to critique. Be gentle
