To refocus using autofocus, press the shutter-release button halfway or press the AF‑ON button again.

The Focus Limit Switch

This switch determines the focus distance limits for autofocus.

FULL: Select this option for subjects that may be closer than 3 m (9.84 ft).

∞–3 m: If your subject will always be at distance of at least 3 m (9.84 ft), select this option for faster focusing.

■Zoom and Depth of Field

Before focusing, rotate the zoom ring to adjust the focal length and frame the photograph. If the camera offers depth-of-field preview (stop down), depth of field can be previewed in the viewfinder (see page 210 for more information).

Note: Note that the focus distance indicator is intended only as a guide and may not accurately show the distance to the subject and may, due to depth of field or other factors, not show ∞ when the camera is focused on a distant object.

■Aperture

Aperture is adjusted using camera controls.
