Technique for Manual Focus
1 Press the cursor button or rotate the focus
ring to focus.
2 Press the cursor button a few more times
or rotate the focus ring further in the same
direction.
3 Operate the cursor button or the focus
ring slightly in the opposite direction to

•
If you zoom in/out after focusing on a subject, the focus may lose its accuracy. In that case,
re-adjust the focus.
•
After cancelling Sleep Mode, focus on the subject again.
•
If you are taking close-up pictures:
–
We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer (P174).
–
The effective focus range (depth of field) is significantly narrowed. Therefore, if the distance
between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the subject, it may become
difficult to focus on it again.
–
The resolution of the periphery of the picture may decrease slightly. This is not a malfunction.
