Autofocus with manual override (M/A mode)
1 Set the focus mode switch to M/A. (Fig. D)
2 Autofocus is provided, but you can manually override the focus by operating the
separate focus ring while lightly depressing the shutter release button or AF start
(AF-ON) button on the camera body of cameras so equipped.
3 To cancel manual override, remove your finger from the shutter release button or the
AF start button.
To limit the range of autofocus (with M/A mode compatible cameras only)
With AF operation, if the subject is always more than 2.5m (8.2 ft.) away, set the
focusing limit switch to “
∞–2.5m” to reduce focusing time. If the subject is 2.5m (8.2 ft.)
or closer, set it to “FULL” (Fig. E).
Focus lock (with M/A mode compatible cameras only)
With autofocus operation, focus is locked while pressing the focus lock button. (Fig. C)
・The AF-Lock function can be engaged on either the camera and lens. Focus is locked while
either of these buttons is pressed.
