My experience has been that I have struggled to get a reliable focus on lenses smaller than 100mm focal length, even when using the x10 magnified Live View on the rear LCD.

The diffraction spikes were just too small to interpret with any confidence. This was using a Bahtinov Mask designed for a 102 mm aperture instrument.

Cheers
