Focusing manually
Normally the focus is automatically
adjusted. This function is useful when
the auto focus does not work well such
as in dark places.
To reactivate auto focusing
Set the FOCUS AUTO/MANUAL
switch to AUTO.
Notes
• Focal point information may not
completely show the correct distance. Use
the information as a guide.
• Focal point information does not show the
correct distance when attaching the
conversion lens.
• If you shoot a subject within 0.8 m
(31 1/2 inches) while the zoom lever is set
to T side, you cannot get a clear focus. In
such cases, the focal point information
flashes. Move the zoom lever to the W side
until the indicator stops flashing.
• You cannot use this function if you have
selected the Panfocus mode in the
PROGRAM AE function.
1 Set the PLAY/STILL/MOVIE
selector to STILL or MOVIE.
2 Set the FOCUS AUTO/
MANUAL switch to MANUAL.
The 9 (manual focus) indicator
appears on the LCD screen or on
the finder.
3 Turn the focus ring to achieve
a sharp focus.
When you shoot still images, the
image on the LCD screen or on the
finder is enlarged (double*) and
the focal point information appears
while the focus is being adjusted.
After adjusting, the image returns
to normal size. The range is from
2 cm (13/16 inch) to
∞
(infinity).
∗
When using the digital zoom
function, the enlarged image will be
less than double size.
