Canon DSLR /Lens Micro Adjustment (1 Viewer)

Hi
I remember that in the last year or so some kind person posted a link on this Canon thread about how to micro adjust Canon DSLR to various Canon lenses using just the green light viewed when manuel focus is used.
It involved pressing the shutter halfway in manual focus and looking at the green in focus light while moving through different plus and minus micro adjustment settings etc and then calculating the result by setting the halfway setting of the plus and minus result, it was a real quick way of doing this without setting up charts etc.
If anyone could please refresh me on how this was done or even better know how to access the link again it would be much appreciated.
I used this method and found it really good but now have another Canon body I would like to adjust to various lenses and can't seem to find the link anywhere after searching through various posts etc , my memory ain't what it used to be so I can't remember how I first did it.
I am sure I saved the link somewhere but can't remember that either.

Thank you

Bob

This isn't exactly what you are looking for as it's Nikon but it will work on a Canon and is worth a look. I watched it and doing the same on my 70D was a doddle.
