Using manual focusing effectively
“Focus fixing” is convenient when you can predict the distance
to the subject. With “Focus fixing,” you can fix the focus in
advance to the distance at which the subject is to pass.

Measuring the exact distance to the subject
The
mark shows the location of the image
sensor*. When you measure the exact distance
between the camera and the subject, refer to the
position of the horizontal line. The distance from
the lens contact surface to the image sensor is
about 18 mm (23/32 in.).
* The image sensor is the part that converts the light
source to a digital signal.
• If the subject is closer than the minimum shooting
distance of the attached lens, the focus cannot be
confirmed. Make sure you put enough distance
between the subject and the camera.
