D Lenses with Focus-Mode Selection
Manual focus mode can be chosen using focus-mode selection controls on
the lens (where available).
D The Focal Plane Mark and Flange-Back Distance
Focus distance is measured from the focal plane
mark (
E ) on the camera body, which shows the
position of the focal plane inside the camera ( q ).
Use this mark when measuring the distance to
your subject for manual focus or macro
photography. The distance between the focal
plane and the lens mounting flange is known as
the “flange-back distance” (
w ). On this camera,
the flange-back distance is 16 mm (0.63 in.).
A Focus Peaking
• If [ ON ] is selected for Custom Setting a13
[ Focus peaking ] > [ Focus peaking display ],
objects that are in focus will be indicated by
colored outlines that appear when focus is
adjusted manually (focus peaking).
• Note that the focus peaking display may not
appear if the camera is unable to detect
outlines. Check focus in the shooting display.
