3. Taking Closeup Shots in the Manual Focusing (MF) Mode
When using this lens, shots taken with the
camera's manual focusing (MF) mode within a
range of less than 50 mm from the wide end
make the subject seem closer and larger than
with the autofocus (AF) mode.
The focusing distance ranges of the wide end
are shown below.
• AF in-focus range: 0.17 m/0.56 ft. to ∞
• MF in-focus range: 0.12 m/0.39 ft. to ∞
Focusing within a range of 0.12 m/0.39 ft. to less
than 0.17 m/0.56 ft. is possible only when using
the MF mode. (MF-only range)
The [AF in-focus range] and [MF in-focus range]
z
will differ in accordance with the focal length.
Refer to the specifications on page 16 for details
z
on the range of focusing distances apart from
with wide-angle lenses.
The focusing distance represents the distance
z
between the [
] mark (focal plane mark) on the
camera and the subject.
