FOCUSING
Adjustment of autofocus and manual focus operation are explained
below.
HOW TO USE AUTOFOCUS
Position the photographic subject within the
centre of the composition and press the
shutter button “half-way”.
• If autofocus is selected, the focusing point will be illuminated in green. (At the
same time, the auto focus lamp will be illuminated in green.)
• If autofocus cannot set correctly, the focusing point will blink. (At the same time,
the auto focus lamp will blink in red)
When setting AF mode to normal autofocus (
is displayed),
the focusing distance is from 50cm to infinity. It is possible to
shorten the minimum focusing distance to 30cm. To do so, set
the focus to FULL mode by pressing the
button.
Although your camera is equipped with highly precise AF system, in some
cases autofocus cannot set correctly.
■ Low-contrast subjects, such as blue sky or a blank wall, etc. or when the color
of the subject is same as background
■ The subject is located in a very low light environment
■ Overlapping near and far objects, such as an animal behind a fence
■ A subject, which moves at high speed
■ Subjects which have repeated patterns such as building windows
In such cases, please use one of the following focusing methods.
1. Use the Focus Lock function to focus on another subject, which has a similar
focusing distance as your subject.
2. Set the lens to MF mode and focus manually.
