❚❚The Electronic Rangefinder
The viewfinder focus indicator can be used to
confirm whether the subject in the selected
focus point is in focus (the focus point can be
selected from any of the 55 focus points).
After positioning the subject in the selected
focus point, press the shutter-release button
halfway and rotate the lens focus ring until the in-focus indicator
(
I) is displayed. Note that with the subjects listed on page 113,
the in-focus indicator may sometimes be displayed when the
subject is not in focus; confirm focus in the viewfinder before
shooting. For information on using the electronic rangefinder
with optional AF-S/AF-I teleconverters, see page 100.
