Closing the MF Assist
•
It will close when the shutter button is pressed halfway.
•
It will also close by touching the [Exit] on the screen or pressing [MENU/SET].
•
When displayed by moving the focus lever or rotating the focus ring, it is closed approximately
10 seconds after operations are stopped.
•
MF Assist or MF guide may not display depending on the lens used, but you can display MF
Assist by direct operation of the camera, using the touch screen or a button.
Not available in these cases:
•
The MF Assist is disabled when using the Digital Zoom or recording motion pictures.
Technique for Manual Focus
1 Focus by moving the focus lever or
rotating the focus ring.
2 Move the lever or rotate the ring a little
further in the same direction.
3 Fine tune the focus by moving the focus
lever slightly in the opposite direction or
rotating the focus ring slightly in the
opposite direction.
•
If you zoom in/out after focusing on a subject, the focus may lose its accuracy. In that case,
re-adjust the focus.
•
After canceling Sleep Mode, focus on the subject again.
•
If you are taking close-up pictures:
–
We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer
.
–
The effective focus range (depth of field) is significantly narrowed. Therefore, if the distance
between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the subject, it may
become difficult to focus on it again.
–
The resolution of the periphery of the picture may decrease slightly. This is not a
malfunction.
