Hasselblad X1D manual Manual Override in Autofocus Mode, Auto / Manual Focus Setting

Functions

MANUAL FOCUS

There is both a Manual focus mode setting and a manual override capability.

In Manual focus mode, focusing is carried out by rotating the focus ring on the lens. The focus setting remains until changed as with a conventional non-autofocus lens. This means that pressing the shutter release button will not activate a focus setting change as it does in autofocus. To change back to autofocus, press the AF / MF button (B).

MANUAL OVERRIDE IN AUTOFOCUS MODE

Manual override is always possible in automatic focus mode without any need to make a new setting. Just rotate the focusing ring in the conventional manner. As the lens barrel does not rotate in autofocus mode, you can hold the focusing ring for instant manual adjustments. However, to retain the new manual focus adjustments, you must maintain the pressure on the shutter release button. You can instantly return to the automatic focusing mode by releasing the pressure on the shutter release button first and then pressing the release button halfway again. The instant manual override function produces a convenient way of working. You can take advantage of autofocus while retaining an instantly adjustable manual focus check if preferred for pin- point accuracy without making any changes in the settings.

With manual override in autofocus mode you can manually alter a focus setting that has been made, by rotating the lens barrel and without having to change modes. As long as the shutter release button is kept at the half-press position, the new focus setting is maintained.

To reactivate the autofocus function, release the shutter release button and press again.
