Autofocus with manual override (M/A mode)

a Set the focus mode switch to “M/A”.
b You can manually override autofocus by
operating the focus ring while lightly
depressing the shutter release button or the
AF start button on the camera.
•

release button or the AF start button on the camera, and lightly
depress the shutter release button to return to the autofocus mode.
5. Depth of field
The depth-of-field indicators are
engraved beside the distance index
line. At close distances, however, so
little is in focus that it may be better
to check the depth of field table (on
page 150). If your camera has a
depth of field preview button or
lever, use it to check the depth of
field in the viewfinder.
