Autofocus with manual override
Set the focus mode switch (Fig.
1)
to M/A. Autofocus
is
provided, but you can
manually override the focus by operating the separate manual focus ring while
lightly depressing the shutter release button or the AF start (AF-ON) button on the
camera body of cameras so equipped. To cancel manual override, remove your
finger from the shutter release button or the AF start button.
•
To limit the range
of
autofocus (for M/A mode usable cameras only)
Move the focus limit switch (Fig. 2) from FULL to °°-2.5m to reduce autofocus
time.
This
is
useful when shooting subjects farther away than 2.5m (8.2 ft.). Set the
switch to FULL when your subjects are closer than 2.5m.
•
Using the autofocus lock buttons (for M/A mode usable cameras only)
Autofocus
is
locked while one of the autofocus lock buttons (Fig.
3)
is depressed.
Autofocus lock is also possible by depressing the AF lock button on the camera
body of cameras so equipped. Priority is given to the AF lock operation taken first.
