Adjusting Focus Manually

The camera can focus automatically. All you have to do is point it, and whatever is
in the center of the display will usually be in sharp focus. If it does not seem to be
E
focusing well, it may be because the subject is not suitable for autofocus.
You can use the manual focusing function for more control over focusing.

Focus lock

Press the FOCUS button to turn off
autofocus. The focus remains locked at
the point set by autofocus.
(eM.FOCUS appears in the display.)
You can now adjust the focus manually
with the selector dial. Press the FOCUS
button again when you want to return
to autofocus.
• If you zoom in on your subject after
turning off autofocus, it may not stay
in focus. It is generally best to adjust
the zoom first, and then the focus.

Manual focus

Use the selector dial to set the focus.
• Turn the selector dial downward to
move the focus farther away.
• Turn the selector dial upwards to
bring the focus nearer.
Notes:
• You cannot adjust the focus without the e mark before M.FOCUS in the
display. Push the FOCUS button so that e appears before M.FOCUS. Then you
can adjust the focus manually.
• The manual focus setting is canceled if you:
– Turn the POWER switch to VCR or OFF.
– Select the [ (Easy Recording) program.
• When you are using the Easy Recording program, autofocus cannot be turned
off.
• See "Troubleshooting" on p. 95 for a list of subjects which may not be suitable
for autofocus.
