ASSIST FUNCTIONS FOR MANUAL FOCUSING
IN LIVE VIEW MODE
Your camera offers two useful assist functions to facilitate settings
and improve setting accuracy:
– The magnification of an (initially) central cropped section of the
screen image.
– Marking those section of the screen image that are in focus
(Focus Peaking)
The two assist functions can be used simultaneously. Both assist
functions are part of the factory settings and therefore activated as
standard. You can optionally use only the magnification function or
only Focus Peaking – or you can deactivate both.
MAGNIFICATION
Enlarged display of a cropped section:
The larger details of the image subject appear on the screen, the
better you can assess their sharpness.
You can access this function with two methods.
Via the focus ring
▸ Select Capture Assistants in the main menu
▸ Select Focus Aid in the submenu
▸ Select Automatic
▸ Turn the focus ring to magnify the desired parts of the image
subject.
▸ Tap and hold the shutter button
▸ Turn the focus ring to sharpen the desired parts of the image
subject.
Via the thumbwheel
▸ Select Custom Settings in the main menu
▸ Select Customize Wheel in the submenu
▸ Select LV Zoom
▸ Turn the thumbwheel to magnify the desired parts of the image
subject.
▸ Turn the focus ring to sharpen the desired parts of the image
subject.
Notes
• The screen image will show the following when the focus ring or
the thumbwheel is turned:
– the enlarged cropped section
– the approximate position of the cropped section in the overall
image at the bottom left (you will see a framed rectangle)
• You can move the cropped section within the image field by
pressing the directional pad. Cross hairs in the image field show
the center of the shifted cropped section
• Use the thumbwheel to choose one of two magnification factors.
• You can return to the normal, i.e. non-magnified view at any
time:
– By tapping the shutter button
– By turning the thumbwheel in anti-clockwise direction
• Turning the focus ring on the lens will return the view to the
most recently used cropped section size.
