AF: Autofocus MF: Manual focus

A/M (Autofocus with manual override. AF priority) mode and M/A
(Autofocus with manual override. MF priority) mode

M/A: Autofocus can be overridden by manually focusing with

the focus ring.

A/M: Autofocus can be overridden by manually focusing with

the focus ring, but focus ring detection sensitivity is lower
than in M/A mode. Use this mode to avoid canceling the
AF setting by unintentionally moving the focus ring.

a

Set the focus mode switch to A/M or M/A.

b

Autofocus can be manually overridden by rotating the focus ring while
pressing the shutter release button halfway, pressing the AF-ON button on
the camera or pressing a focus operation button (with focus operation set to
AF-ON) on the lens.

c

Pressing the shutter release button halfway, pressing the AF-ON button on

the camera again or pressing a focus operation button on the lens again will
cancel manual override and return the lens to autofocus mode.

To limit the range of autofocus
This function is only available with autofocus.

FULL:

If the subject is sometimes closer than 6 m (19.7 ft.),
set the switch to FULL.

–6m: If the subject is always 6 m (19.7 ft.) or more away, set

the switch to ∞–6m to reduce focusing time.
