AF fine-tuning options

Fine-tune focus for the current lens.

• Use only as required.
• We recommend that you perform fine-tuning at a focus distance you use frequently. If you perform focus-tuning at a short focus distance, for example, you may find it less effective at longer distances.

Option	Description
[AF fine-tune]	[On]: Turn AF fine-tuning on. [Off]: Turn AF fine-tuning off.
[Fine-tune and save lens]	Fine-tune focus for the current lens. Press 1 or 3 to highlight items and press 4 or 2 to choose from values between +20 and -20. The larger the fine-tuning value, the farther the focal point is from the lens; the smaller the value, the closer the focal point. The display shows the current and previous values. The camera can store values for up to 40 lens types. If a lens for which values have already been saved is used, the fine-tuning values will be overwritten.
[Default]	Choose the fine-tuning values for lenses for which no values have previously been saved using [Fine-tune and save lens]. Press 4 or 2 to choose from values between +20 and -20.
[List saved values]	List values saved using [Fine-tune and save lens]. Highlighting a lens in the list and pressing 2 displays a [Choose lens number] dialog. The [Choose lens number] dialog is used to enter the lens identifier. The serial number is automatically entered for Z mount lenses and some F mount lenses.
