Manual Focus
Use
this option
to
focus manually or when the camera
is
unable
to
focus correctly using autofocus. To focus manually, display
the
Quick settings display and choose Focus
mode
(~
48)
and select
MF
(manual focus) for Focus
mode
(~
57).
Adjust the lens focusing ring until the image displayed on the clear
matte field
in
the viewfinder
is
in
focus. Photographs
can
be taken
at any time, even when the image
is
not
in
focus.
When using a lens that offers A-M selection, select M when focusing manually. With lenses
that support
M/
A (autofocus
with
manual priority), focus
can
be adjusted manually
with
the lens set
to
M or
M/
A.
See
the documentation provided with your lens for details.

the
selected focus
point
is
in
focus. After positioning
the
subject in the active
focus point, press
the
shutter-release
button
halfway and rotate the lens
focusing ring until the in-focus indicator
(e)
is
displayed.
Use

the focus distance for shooting in manual focus mode. Note
that
if
the

is
one for
which
autofocus does
not
perform well
(tJ!

the in-focus indicator
(e)
may be
displayed even when
the

is
not
in focus. Confirm
that
the image in
the
viewfinder
is
in focus
before shooting.
