Zoom frame AF/zoom AF

You can zoom in on a portion of the frame when adjusting focus. Choosing a
high zoom ratio allows you to use autofocus to focus on a smaller area than is
normally covered by the AF target. Autofocus is also available over a wider area
of the frame than with AF target selection.

displayed and when the view through the lens is zoomed in.
At higher zoom ratios, autofocus is more accurate when the view though the lens is
zoomed in.
