The larger the focus value gets, the further the position where focus is achieved. ≥ If you move the FOCUS A/M/¶ switch towards [¶], focus will be adjusted to MF95 on the infinity side. (The FOCUS A/M/¶ switch will return to the [M] position.) ≥ To return to Auto Focus, set the FOCUS A/M/¶ switch to [A], or set [AF] to [ON] and switch to Auto Mode.
