I'm shooting on my AF-100 with the Zuiko 35-100 and it seems like I have a back focus issue. When I zoom in to focus, and then zoom back, the focus is lost....... very difficult to work with. Any link to instructions? Thank you!
 
as far as i understand all digital olympus and panasonic lenses doesn`t hold the focus on zoom, its been written alot here about that issue! also if u will focus on 1st object and then will focus on 2nd object and will want to come back to 1st focus point - most likely it will not work, u ill be out of focus, thats why its useless to uss ff with oly lenses as well. So welcome to club!
 
Stills lenses won't hold focus in the same way as video lenses unfortunately. You'll need to trust the peaking or use punch in on a monitor.
 
Okay, thanks for the info. I am used to the video lenses.... It's a different world.
I'll have to get my eyes fixed, too. Or at least a much bigger monitor!
 
I believe all of the Canon L lens are parfocal and many other, my 17-55 2.8 efs lens is also parfocal.
