Shooting Range and Focusing

2 Specify the general focal position.

zzReferring to the on-screen MF indicator

 

bar (which shows the distance and focal

 

position) and the magnified display area,

 

press the <o><p> buttons or turn the

MF Indicator

<7> dial to specify the general focal

position, and then press the <m> button.

 

3 Fine-tune the focus.

zzPress the shutter button halfway to have the camera fine-tune the focal position (Safety MF).

zzYou can also fine-tune the focus by pressing the <> button.

AF frame mode or size cannot be changed while focusing manually (=145). If you want to change the AF frame mode or size, cancel manual focus mode first.

Focusing is possible when using the digital zoom (=63) or digital tele-converter (=144), or when using a TV as a display (=243), but the magnified display will not appear.

To focus more accurately, try attaching the camera to a tripod to stabilize it.

To hide the magnified display area, press the <n> button and set [MF‑Point Zoom] on the [4] tab to [Off] (=48).

To deactivate automatic focus fine-tuning when the shutter button is pressed halfway, press the <n> button and set [Safety MF] on the [4] tab to

[Off] (=48).
