CCESSORY NOTES
SMOOTH FOCUS
Some lenses or lens and teleconverter combinations can be difficult to focus manually.
The following procedure disconnects the body’s AF system to make focusing easier.
Metering accuracy and Anti-Shake performance is lower when using the function. This
cannot be used with xi series or AF Power Zoom lenses.
Smooth-focus indicator
Turn the focus-mode dial to the manual-focus position.
Simultaneously press and hold the lens release and the
central button of the controller.
Release the lens release followed by the controller to
disconnect the AF system.
An indicator warns the smooth-focus mode is active. To
cancel the mode, repeat the procedure or change the
position of the focus-mode dial.
FOCAL-LENGTH CONVERSION
Because the CCD is smaller than a 35mm frame, the angle of view obtained at a specific
focal length is not the same. To calculate the approximate equivalent 35mm focal length,
multiply the focal length in use by 1.5. A 100mm lens gives about the same angle of view
as a 150mm lens on a 35mm camera.
