P: Display Focus Points

Lightroom does not display focus point for raw images making it difficult to determine why some pictures seem to be sharp and others not. It would be great if Lightroom could display focus point, with a display on/off toggle, for raw images.

As it stands now I launch Nikon ViewNX 2 to check focus/sharpness before importing to Lightroom 4. I will then delete directly out of ViewNX2. This is counter-intuitive to the Lightroom workflow and is frustrating.

This request has been in the queue since at least Lightroom 2 days so I would like to think it is getting close to implementation???

I also like to see the focus points - of course not only of Nikon but also of Canon gear. 🙂

I would like to be able to view the focus point on my images. This is the ONLY thing I miss since I started using Lightroom instead of Nikon NX2. This is particularly valuable when using focus tracking.

I think it would be useful, not as some have suggested to find out what is in focus, but I look at the focus points when the image is NOT in focus in the way that I expect. Its part of a kind of forensic exercise: after I work out what I was doing, "what did the camera think it was doing then?". I'm not a professional, or even very good, and this kind of post mortem helps me understand how I have or may have screwed up.

Yes, I agree. I would like to see information about what focus point was chosen when a shot was taken.

Add the feature that highlights the focus point in the photo.

I already did. Looks like it's just you and me, kid.

I'm voting far more liberally now than I was at first.
