After fidgeting with the camera for quite a while trying to figure out what kind of matching I could come up with, I settled on the following:
Do as is described in the "camerafocus" movie to get things in focus, and then use the M~R camera focal length setting to "frame" the shot. In other words, forget "matching" 50mm SW camera to the M~R 50mm camera. Changing the value in the M~R camera does not effect focus in any way (that I could see) and by varying this you get a "wide angle/macro" effect... Framing a scene by doing this took about 2-3 renders (you don't even have to wait for first pass, just look at the preview window) and adjust until you get what you like. I found that by starting at 50mm in M~R and then "zooming in" to about 70-80mm controlled the scene very well.
