4. Infinity Compensation Mark

To compensate for shifting of the infinity focus
point that results from changes in temperature.
The infinity position at normal temperature is the
point at which the vertical line of the L mark is
aligned with the distance indicator on the
distance scale.

For accurate manual focusing on subjects at
infinity distance, look through the viewfinder while
rotating the focusing ring.

3. Switching the Focusing Distance Range

You can choose the focusing distance range with
a switch. By setting a suitable focusing distance
range, actual autofocusing time can be shorter.
