The MF/AF function works in CAMERA, M.REC mode only.
In most situations, it is better to use the automatic focus
feature, as it enables you to concentrate on the creative side of your recording.
Manual focusing may be necessary under certain conditions that make automatic focusing difficult and/or unreliable.
