When it is difficult to get the proper focus in autofocus mode, you can
adjust the focus manually.

Notes

• In the case of a subject that can be focused in autofocus mode, the z indicator lights

up in the viewfinder when the focus is confirmed. When the Wide AF area is used,
the center area is used, and when the Local AF area is used, the area that is selected
with the control button is used.

• When using a tele converter (sold separately), etc., rotation of the focusing ring may

not be smooth.

• The correct focus in the viewfinder is not achieved if the diopter is not adjusted

properly (page 24).

• The direct manual focus function is not available on this camera.
