I would recommend you re-try with more consistent lighting and see what you get. Other than that, the other three lenses I used were adjusted just fine most of them needing less than 2 MA points. I will say, that the 85L did give me some problems with testing as it was being tested at ƒ1. I plan on doing the rest of my lenses this weekend. FoCal ended up with the exact same results as I'd found in my own testing, so that was extremely encouraging.
I recently bought the pro version and having done my own MA on a couple of lenses, I ran a series of tests with FoCal on these same lenses. Maybe not doing it right? I'm in the same boat. Results were consistent all times ran the test 5 times per lens to be sure Results are amazing.

I'm not sure how you can get a bad result in manual mode because you can review all of the images yourself and decide which is the sharpest.
I successfully used FoCal on my 5D3 and 50 1. The 50L is awesome, you're going to love it once you get it dialed in! But themadman is right, this lens takes a little bit of work to get used to all of it's quirks. I get pretty consistent focusing and have yet to notice much of the focus shift problem others talk about. Otherwise you'll end up with what appears to be back focusing, and after you do MFA to correct for that, you'll have bad front focusing once you go to shoot something straight on. Lastly, shoot your subject from straight on when doing MFA, don't shoot at angled targets. Get the images into DPP, make the AF Points visible Command + J on a Mac, and see where you are. Also, don't go off of the 5D3's LCD to see where your focus is hitting. To get my 50L dialed in I just did a LOT of shooting wide open, at objects with good texture and contrast, and eventually had an idea of where the AF was hitting the most in front or behind target, and adjusted accordingly. Basically, FoCal can't get a consistent reading and therefore can't make an exact adjustment. I plan to redo the 135L testing, this time from a correct, large distance. My newest zoom, Sigma 17-50 OS, was tested to work fine at -2 MA, in real life environment. I didn't even need to use a tripod, remote shutter release, mirror lockup etc. Then I discovered that I get better results by hanging a large printed target on a wall in my backyard, and shooting it from realistic distances on a sunny day. I wonder what throws it off? How did you end of adjusting the 50L? I spent a lot of time doing indoor testing printed targets, computer monitor with moire patterns. Other people in the 50L thread have the same experience with the MFA being all jumpy. Anyone had better luck? Is there something I'm missing? MatthewK wrote in I used the most recent version of FoCal, and it zeroed in the MFA on all of my lenses EXCEPT for the 50L. Ended up using a printed free focus chart and settled on -6, which seems to give me the most consistency over varying distances and apertures. So I waited until the next day and set up in my back yard in daylight the recommended environment. The first night it was raining, so I tried the focus test indoors and the results varied greatly -6 to +3. Took some real world shots and was not happy. Attempted the moire effect AF test and came up with a -4 MFA. It confirmed that the adjustment values I had set using the brute force method with SpyderLensCal were spot on.
