LENSES
■ F-Hold Function
As a regular zoom lens is turned toward the telephoto end, the f-number decreases. This
phenomenon is referred to as "F drop." The F-Hold function has been provided in order to enable
zoom operations to be performed only within the range of the focal length where this F drop does
not occur.
The settings are performed on the information display, and a simple method which can be used to
set this function is described here. For further details, refer to the Information Display Manual.
