Nikon cameras stores the focus point that was in focus and the exposure was taken. This would be extremely valuable to see for a sports/action/wildlife photographer.

To the software creators of PS CC2015: Nikon and Canon software makes it possible to view the point where we focused in a RAW photo; would be very useful to add that feature to CC2015.
Some photographs come out out of focus (like when we focus in the eyes of a person but that was not the focus point chosen by the camera). That problem can be avoided if PS CC shows us where the focus point was selected.

Status update: usability improved for multi-monitor Mac users, and Chris is working on improving Windows version too (primarily for multi-monitor environment).

Finally!! Glad to see this plugin come out and I would say it is spot on in terms of the information it captures. I really like the depth of field information as well. Great job!

Would be nice if the information could be presented within LR to make a more integrated experience but I'm assuming that would not be possible.

Anyway, really like the plugin and plan on using it often.

I tried the new focus-point plugin and it works as advertised (displays focus points). It's still got some usability issues, but once those are ironed out will be a very worthwhile plugin.

I recommend everybody with Nikon and/or Canon cameras who is interested in focus points to try it, and give the author feedback.

(in the future it may support other camera brands too - author takes requests..).

Thanks to Son Nguyen for informing us (he is not the author, the author has not released his name, yet..).
