Notes on Manual Focus
• When using the self-timer, be sure that the self-timer is selected (p. 42) before
selecting a focus distance. Changing the focus mode after setting the focus
distance will cancel manual focus.
• Use autofocus (p. 44) when an optional converter lens is attached (p. 132). In
manual focus mode, the actual focus distance will differ from that shown in
the monitor.
• When manual focus is set to the ™ end of the manual focus indicator, the
camera may be unable to focus at some zoom positions. If the camera is
unable to focus at the current zoom position, the manual focus display in the
monitor will turn red. Zoom the camera in or out until the manual focus display
no longer appears in red.
• The focus distance available depend on the focus
mode setting (p. 41). Note that the focus
distances of 4-30cm (1.6-12 in.) are only available
at
™ (macro close-up) and ™0 (macro close-up
+ self-timer) at widest angle.
• Manual focus display shows
approximate focus distance from lens
between
™ (4cm/1.6 in.) at widest
angle) and @ infinity.
