Set the Lens I/F to digital in the
LENS
menu before using precision focus.
The camera supports the precision focus feature which is offered by some advanced (digital)
lenses. This system automatically focuses the image within a user defined focus frame on the
screen. When precision focus is enabled on the lens, the focus frame is superimposed on the
viewfinder image. The frame can be moved and resized by the controls on the lens or on the
focus handle.
An indicator in the bottom left corner of the viewfinder screen shows the current focus
information:
Refer to the documentation of the lens manufacturer for more information about the precision
focus feature.

zoomed out or in, ranging from 0 (wide angle) to 99 (telezoom). It shows 50 if the lens does not
