Focus Using the RF lens's focus ring - You can change the direction of the adjustment when operating the focus ring with the > [B System Setup] > [Focus Ring Dir.] setting. - You can link the amount of focus adjustment when using the focus ring to either the rotation angle or the 86 rotation speed with the > [B System Setup] > [Focus Ring Response] setting. - When the lens is set to autofocus, you can enable/disable manual adjustments with the > [B System Setup] > [Focus Ring Operation] setting. Using the Focus Assistance Functions In order to focus more accurately, you can use the following focus assistance functions: Dual Pixel Focus Guide, an onscreen guide that shows you if the selected subject is in focus; peaking, which creates a clearer contrast by emphasizing the outlines of the subject; and magnification, which enlarges the image on the screen. You can use peaking and the focus guide or peaking and magnification simultaneously for greater effect. Focus guide The focus guide gives you an intuitive visual indication of the current focus distance and the direction and amount of adjustment necessary to bring the selected subject into full focus. When used in combination with face detection (A 91), the guide will focus on the face of the person detected as the main subject. When eye detection (A 91) is activated, the guide will focus on the eyes of the person detected as the main subject. 1 Using direct touch control (A 56), you can touch the [Focus Guide] switch to turn on/off the focus guide. • Alternatively, you can use the > [A Assistance Functions] > [Focus Guide] setting or an assignable button set to [Focus Guide], to display/hide the focus guide. 2 Touch the point where you want to focus on the LCD screen to move the focus guide. • You can also use the joystick or SELECT dial to move the focus guide's frame. Press the CANCEL button to return the focus guide's frame to the center of the screen. 3 Adjust the focus manually as necessary. • When the focus guide turns green, the subject is correctly focused. Focus farther (large adjustment) Focus farther (small adjustment) In focus (in green) Focus closer (small adjustment) Focus closer (large adjustment) Cannot determine adjustment NOTES • With subjects or in situations where autofocus may not work well (A 89), the focus guide may not work correctly. • The focus guide cannot be used in the following cases: - While the focus is being adjusted automatically using one-shot AF or continuous AF (including the [Only Around Focus Point] setting). - When a manual focus lens is attached to the camera, except for compatible EF Cinema lenses (A 234). • When the focus guide and face detection/tracking functions are used together, the focus guide may not focus the main subject's eyes correctly, depending on the direction in which the face is turned.
