Focus Modes - Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z1 Instruction Manual

FOCUS MODES

This camera has autofocus and manual focus control. The focus mode must be activated
separately in the Digital Subject Program and P, A, S, and M exposure-mode menus. The
focus mode is activated in section 2 of the P, A, S, and M exposure-mode menu (p. 44).
When using Digital Subject Programs the focus mode is reset when the position of the
exposure mode dial is changed or when the camera is turned off
Autofocus will produce excellent results in almost every situation, however, under certain
conditions, the autofocus system will not work accurately; see special focusing situations
on page 25. In these situations the camera can be manually focused.
When focusing manually, a distance scale shows the approximate subject distance. The
scale changes depending on the focusing range.
Use the up/down controller keys to focus. When
focusing, the monitor image is automatically
magnified by a maximum of 2.5X depending on the
digital zoom setting; the focusing scale shows
approximate distance. The live image returns to
normal after two seconds, when zooming, or when
the shutter-release button is pressed partway down.
When using the shutter-priority, aperture-
priority, or manual exposure modes (p. 36 - 38)
with manual focus, press the central button of
the controller to switch between using the
up/down keys to focus or to adjust the
exposure. The active function is indicated in
blue.
