Saving and Recalling Focus Positions
You can save the curr
ent focus position by pressing and holding a custom control to which you have
assigned [Save focus position]. The saved focus position can be instantly restored by pressing a
custom control assigned [Recall focus position] (“memory recall”). You may find this useful if you
frequently return to subjects at a fixed focus distance.
[Recall focus position] can be assigned to multiple controls. Focus positions saved by selecting
[Save to all] for [Save focus position] can be recalled using any of the assigned controls. Those
saved by selecting [Save individually] for [Save focus position] can instead be recalled only via a
specific control.
Focus positions can be saved in any focus mode.
The stored distance is however reset when the lens is detached.
D Cautions: Saving and Recalling Focus Positions
Focus positions cannot be saved while shooting information is displayed.
The focus position selected when a stored value is recalled may differ from the saved position due
to changes in ambient temperature.
Changes to zoom after a focus position is saved tend to alter the position selected when the value is
recalled.
