M/A: Autofocus can be overridden by manually focusing with
the focus ring.
A/M: Autofocus can be overridden by manually focusing with
the focus ring, but focus ring detection sensitivity is lower
than in M/A mode. Use this mode to avoid canceling the
AF setting by unintentionally moving the focus ring.
• With AF operation, if the subject is always more than 5 m
(16.4 ft.) away, set the focusing limit switch to
reduce focusing time.
• If the subject is sometimes 5 m (16.4 ft.) or closer, set it to
FULL.
