Using the focus ring design
The manual focus mechanism of this camera reads the direction and distance the manual focus ring
is moved and drives the focusing lens with a small motor. Even when the camera-to-subject distance
displayed in the monitor is 20 cm (8 in.) or
∞
, the focus ring can be turned farther, but stops at 20
cm (8 in.) or
∞
.
Note
• In the manual focus mode, you can focus the lens through the entire range from 20 cm (8 in.) to
∞
.
