Direct manual focus (DMF)

still image

You can make fine adjustments manually after performing auto focusing, letting you focus on a subject more quickly than when using the manual focus from the beginning. This is convenient in situations such as macro shooting.

  1. Turn the focus mode dial while pressing the focus mode dial lock release button and select DMF.
  2. Press the shutter button halfway down to focus automatically.
  3. Keep the shutter button pressed halfway down, and then rotate the focusing ring to achieve a sharper focus.
    • When you rotate the focusing ring, the focus distance is displayed on the screen.
      The focus distance is not displayed when the Mount Adaptor (sold separately) is attached.
  4. Press the shutter button fully down to shoot an image.

Hint

  • If you set [Full Time DMF] to [On], you can always perform manual focusing operations without setting the focus mode to [DMF]. (You cannot switch to manual focus while shooting continuously in the [Continuous AF] mode.)
