Nikon D50 Manuel D’Utilisation

If the lens has a maximum aperture of f/5.6 or faster, 
the viewfi nder fo cus indicator can be used to con fi rm 
whether the subject in the se lect ed focus area is in 
focus.  After positioning the sub ject in the active focus 
area, press the shut 

ter-re lease but 

ton half 

way and 

rotate the lens fo cus ring un til the in-fo cus in di ca tor

To determine the distance between your subject and 
the camera, measure from the focal plane mark on the 
camera body.

Manual focus is available for manual focus lenses 
or when autofocus does not produce the desired 
re sults.  To focus manually, set the focus-mode 
selector to M and rotate the lens focus ring until 
the image displayed on the clear matte fi eld  in 
the viewfi nder is in focus.  Pho to graphs can be 
taken at any time, even when the image is not 
in focus.

When using a lens that offers A-M selection, select M when focusing manu-
ally.  With lenses that support M/A (autofocus with manual priority), focus 
can be adjusted man u al ly with the lens set to M or M/A.  See the documen-
tation provided with your lens for details.
