Foreground Information: The TTL auto focusing system focuses for the object in the center of the viewfinder that is closest to the camera. For this reason, make sure that objects in front of your key subject do not cross the split-image center line. Correct focus will be obtained even with foreground objects as long as they do not cross the split-image center line. Picture Composition: When composing a picture, first focus on the key subject. Remember, the auto focusing system reads only the subject which bisects the split-image line of the viewfinder, so keep the subject in the center until the focus locks on the subject, then frame your subject as you like. ZOOMING: To zoom, pull the lens barrel out for wide angle settings, and pull back for telephoto. Best results are obtained if you focus at the telephoto setting first, then adjust to the desired focal length. This way you obtain a larger image for focusing, and foreground matter which might distract the focusing sensor is easily eliminated. •• • •„, 4%. • • 4 94, • • IP" 25*

Foreground
Information:
The
TTL
auto
focusing
system
focuses
for
the
object
in
the
center
of
the
viewfinder
that
is
closest
to
the
camera.
For
this
reason,
make
sure
that
objects
in
front
of
your
key
subject
do
not
cross
the
split
-image
center
line.
Correct
focus
will
be
obtained
even
with
foreground
objects
as
long
as
they
do
not
cross
the
split
-image
center
line.
Picture
Composition:
When
composing
a
picture,
first
focus
on
the
key
subject.
Remember,
the
auto
focusing
system
reads
only
the
subject
which
bisects
the
split
-image
line
of
the
viewfinder,
so
keep
the
subject
in
the
center
until
the
focus
locks
on
the
subject,
then
frame
your
subject
as
you
like.
ZOOMING:
To
zoom,
pull
the
lens
barrel
out
for
wide
angle
settings,
and
pull
back
for
telephoto.
Best
results
are
obtained
if
you
focus
at
the
telephoto
setting
first,
then
adjust
to
the
desired
focal
length.
This
way
you
obtain
a
larger
image
for
focusing,
and
foreground
matter
which
might
distract
the
focusing
sensor
is
easily
eliminated.
