AF Fine Adjustment
• Be sure to use [AF Fine Adjustment] only when necessary. Care should 
be taken as adjusting the autofocus may make it difficult to capture images 
with the appropriate focus. 
• Any camera shake during test shooting may make it difficult to obtain 
the accurate focusing position. Therefore, always use a tripod when taking 
test shots.
