1 Focus by moving the focus lever or
rotating the focus ring.
2 Move the lever or rotate the ring a little
further in the same direction.
3 Fine tune the focus by moving the focus
lever slightly in the opposite direction or
rotating the focus ring slightly in the
opposite direction.
Note
•
If you use the zoom function after focusing on the subject, focus on the subject again.
• After canceling Sleep Mode, focus on the subject again.
• If you are taking close-up pictures
– We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer (P88).
– 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.
Technique for Manual Focus

mark is a mark used to measure
