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.

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..).

It would be great if Adobe Lightroom would identify the autofocus point(s) used in taking photos once the image is loaded into the LR program. (Breezebrowser does this). Could you incorporate such a feature in future LR updates?
