MANUAL FOCUS

1. Slide the focus-mode switch down

and release.

• “MF” will appear on the data panel.

2. Turn the focusing ring until the

subject appears sharp.

• When the shutter-release button is pressed

partway down, the AF system monitors the
focus. The viewfinder focus signal glows when
the object in the focus frame is in focus.

• To return to the autofocus mode, slide the

focus-mode switch down a second time; the
manual focus indicator on the data panel will
disappear. Manual focus is canceled when the
camera is turned off.

The lens can be focused manually. The autofocus system can be
used to monitor focus and indicate when a subject in the focus frame
is in focus.

• When using manual focus with ‘D’ series lenses, multi-segment metering is

employed. With other lens, the camera automatically switches to center-
weighted metering. The metered exposure may be different between
autofocus and manual focus.
