Using the snap-in focus function When the subject comes into the point where the prefocus was set, the shutter is automatically released. How to Use: 1. Use a non-autofocus lens. 2. Set the focus mode switch to [AF]. 3. Focus at the point where you wish to capture the subject. 4. Using the optional "Cable Switch F", keep the trigger release button depressed so that the autofocus and metering systems stay active. 5. The camera releases the shutter automatically when the subject comes into focus at the point selected. (2) HARD•TO•AUTOFOCUS SUBJECTS The autofocus system is highly precise, but not perfect. Depending on the brightness, contrast, shape, and size of your subject, the autofocus system may not operate. In such a case, use the focus-lock technique (see page 34.) on a subject near the actual one and equidistant from the lens, or set the focus mode switch to [MF] and use the manual focus mode to focus the lens on the subject with the aid of the matte field in the viewfinder (see page 43). 4ME SNOLLVEI3dO 030NVAOV
