Hi, this is my first post so I want to say hello :)
I have a 5D classic, awesome camera.
Unfortenutly It has backfocus.
Is there any possible to calibrate this on my own? Maybe magic lantern has this option or someone working on this?
I suppose you don't own such a thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indicator_(distance_amplifying_instrument)
but that's what you need for mechanical calibration.

Thanks for fast reply.
Yes, I have this equipment! But how can I calibrate camera in conjunction with this? Where I can find instruction or something?

Sorry, unable to find the link right now!
Well, I remember some things ...
You may have one of these errors:
Flange distance wrong = distance between sensor plane and mount incorrect. This is where you have to work with shims and said tool.
AF sensor misaligned = Flange distance may be correct but phase AF module (bottom of your cam mount) is in the wrong position.
Are you able to focus manually to infinity with tele and wide angle lenses?

Thanks for your answer.
Yes I can focus to infinity.
My backfocus is not so big but definitely it noticeable on pictures.
