Depth-of-Field Preview

To check depth of field for the current aper ture setting, press and hold the depth-of-
field preview button.

The lens will be stopped down to the aperture selected
by the camera in programmed auto or shutter-priority
auto exposure modes, or to the value selected by the
user in aper ture-priority or manual modes. The view
through the viewfinder provides an approximation of
the depth of field that can be obtained at the current
aper ture setting.
