Technique for Manual Focus

1Press the cursor button or rotate the focus

ring to focus.

2Press the cursor button a few more times

or rotate the focus ring further in the same direction.

3Operate the cursor button or the focus

ring slightly in the opposite direction to fine tune the focus.

•If you zoom in/out after focusing on a subject, the focus may lose its accuracy. In that case, re-adjust the focus.

•After canceling Sleep Mode, focus on the subject again.

•If you are taking close-up pictures:

–We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer (P174).

–The effective focus range (depth of field) is significantly narrowed. Therefore, if the distance between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the subject, it may become difficult to focus on it again.

–The resolution of the periphery of the picture may decrease slightly. This is not a malfunction.
