Choosing How the Camera Focuses (Focus)
A
AF-P Lenses
When an AF-P lens is used in manual focus mode, the in-focus indicator
will flash in the viewfinder (or in live view, the focus point will flash in the
monitor) to warn that continuing to rotate the focus ring in the current
direction will not bring the subject into focus.
A
The Focal Plane Mark and Flange-Back Distance
Focus distance is measured from the focal
plane mark (
E
) on the camera body, which
shows the position of the focal plane inside the
camera (
q
). Use this mark when measuring the
distance to your subject for manual focus or
macro photography. The distance between the
focal plane and the lens mounting flange is
known as the “flange-back distance” (
w
). On
this camera, the flange-back distance is
46.5 mm (1.83 in.).
A
Focus Peaking
•
If an option other than [Off] is selected for
Custom Setting d10 [Peaking highlights] >
[Peaking level], objects that are in focus will
be indicated by colored outlines that appear
when focus is adjusted manually during live
view.
•
Note that peaking highlights may not be
displayed if the camera is unable to detect outlines. In this case focus
can be checked by zooming in on the view through the lens in the
display.
