When shooting distant landscapes, depth of field may influence operation and the subject may appear in focus at a position that is closer than Fr infinity. • For more information, see page 144. • When the zoom lock is set to LOCK position at the focal length of 28mm, the Es zoom ring is locked. When carrying the camera, lock the zoom ring to prevent the lens from extending due to its own weight. Se Setting the aperture Use the camera to adjust the aperture setting.
