Manual distance setting
For certain subjects and situations, it can be beneficial to set the
distance yourself, rather than using autofocus. For example, if you are
using the same setting for several pictures and it would be more work
to use exposure lock, or if you want to keep the setting at innity for
landscape pictures, or if you want to allow no or only a slower AF
mode in poor, i.e. very dark, lighting conditions.
Use the corresponding ring on the lens (5) to set the distance
manually
From the AF position, you first have to overcome a slight resistance.
The optimum setting is reached when the monitor image shows the
critical part(s) of your subject as you want it to be reproduced.
