Photos OK to edit
On my camera, I am able to review the image and see which area was where I set my focus point.

Is this possible in lightroom? To be able to see where, in a f/22 image, the focus point was?

Thanks!
 
At an aperture like that just look at your image and see if it is in focus. Zoom in close. No, it will not show your focal point in LR.
 
What Kathy said. Maybe in your Nikon software it will show. DPP/Canon shows can show focus points.
 
There is a plug-in for this. I installed it a while back and it works good, but I do not use it hardly at all as so often I am on the central focus point and recompose. It also gives the focus distance, DOF, total focus points, how many were active and if focus locked on. I downloaded it from:

No, it will not show your focal point in LR.
Oh, that's a kick in the head. Maybe I'll just keep using Aperture3.
 
You might like to look at this article from Lightroom Killer Tips that tells you a bit more about the plugin. Also, there are quite a few comments about it. Some people quite like it. PLUG-IN Show Focus Point Lightroom Plug-In - Lightroom Killer Tips


Here's a screen cap of the plugins window. The DoF, and hyperfocal distance is useful.
