You can focus on the subject with auto focus by sliding down the focus switch to [4] in MF mode.

This is convenient for prefocus.

This is a technique to focus on the point to take pictures in advance when it is difficult to focus on the subject with auto focus due to its quick motion. [e.g. [PANNING] in scene mode (P59)]

This function is suitable when the distance between the camera and the subject is certain.

You can also record with manual focus in

motion image mode [ ]. When starting the recording, the focus is fixed.

When you focus on the subject in Wide, the focus may not be adequate in Tele. In this case, focus on the subject again.

When setting the manual focus, you cannot set the continuous AF. (P71)

The MF assistance only appears in optical zoom range.
