Notes for AF Microadjustment
Clearing All AF Microadjustments
The AF’s point of focus will vary slightly depending on the subject
conditions, brightness, zoom position, and other shooting conditions.
Therefore, even if you perform AF Microadjustment, focus may still not
be achieved at the suitable position.
The adjustments will be retained even if you clear all the camera settings
(p.56). However, the setting itself will be [Disable].
It is best to make the adjustment at the actual location where you will
shoot. This will make the adjustment more precise.
Using a tripod when making the adjustment is recommended.
For checking the adjustment result, shooting at the 73 image-recording
quality is recommended.
The adjustment amount of one step varies depending on the maximum
aperture of the lens. Keep adjusting, shooting, and checking the focus
repeatedly to adjust the AF’s point of focus.
AF adjustment is not possible for the Live mode and u Live mode
(contrast AF).
