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.

z

To measure 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 of the camera that acts as the film.

• 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.
