Notes:

1.All focus detection operating ranges are approximate.

2.If your subject is outside the focus detection range, the LED focus-impossible warning indicator f x)or far-focus indicator (-4)will light up inside the DX-1 AF Finder. In this case, turn the prime lens's focusing ring to less than infinity (<*>); the distance set now becomes the maximum shooting distance ot the prime fens' focus detection range, so its focus detection range from maximum to minimum is correspondingly decreased. You can then focus on

the subject even if it falls outside the range tabled. For example, when using

50mm f/1.8 as the prime

g j m

lens, its focus detection

range changes as in the
