Adjusting the focus

When it is difficult to get the proper focus in autofocus mode, you can
adjust the focus manually.

Notes

• When the Wide AF area is used, the center area is used for focusing; when the Zone

AF area is used, a typical area of the selected zone is used; and when the Local AF
area is used, an area that is selected using the control button is used.

• When using a teleconverter (sold separately), etc., rotation of the focusing ring may

not be smooth.

• The correct focus in the viewfinder is not achieved if the diopter is not adjusted

properly in viewfinder mode (page 29).

• Make sure to set the focus mode switch on the lens to MF for manual focus. Rotating

the focusing ring forcibly without switching to MF may damage it.
