D9.4 Focus Indicator
The focus indicator appears as a bar graph across the
lower middle of the viewfinder screen with a white box
above (Focus Area Indicator). The bar graph measures
the sharpness of the image within the box. When the
graph is all the way to the left the image is soft. When it
is to the right it is sharp. Best focus is when the indicator
peaks as far to the right as you can get it, typically about
75% of the full scale. The indicator will never get all the
way to the right. The Focus Indicator and Focus Indicator
Area box can be turned on and o in
(MENU: VF – Display On/O – Focus Indicator /and/
Focus Area Indicator).
