Manual

ENG-9

Focus Preset

When turning the playback ring, keep your ﬁnger 

away from the shutter button. In One-Shot AF

mode, the exposure will be locked when you

press the shutter button halfway and focus is

achieved. So if you press the shutter button

halfway while turning the playback ring, the

exposure may not be correct.

When not using the focus preset, set the switch 

to OFF.

The focus preset function will not work while a 

Live View image is displayed on the camera.*

By turning the playback ring to the left or right,

the focus shifts as far as the preset distance.

Focus will shift freely released of AF focusing

while the playback ring is still turned.

If the focus preset switch was set to  , the beeper

will sound twice.

Setting the focus mode switch to power focus

(PF) when using the lens with the EOS-1D X

or EOS 5D Mark III enables focus change at a

slow set speed during movie shooting. Also, you

can make a 2-step change in focus shift speed

depending on the angle that the playback ring is

rotated to.

In the following cases, the focusing distance scale

(p. 14) will move slightly. It will not affect the image.

• When you press the focus preset button.

• When you turn the playback ring.

< How to Focus at the Preset Distance >

* Not applicable to the EOS-1D X or EOS 5D Mark III

What does the "f" stand for with camera lenses? Verified

The f-ratio stands for the reciprocal of the relative aperture. This is the ratio of the system's focal length to the diameter of the entrance pupil. A higher f-ratio means a smaller entrance and thus less light coming into the lens.
