Message: <blockquote data-quote="Pretzel" data-source="post: 312488" data-attributes="member: 12257">Actually, the 18-55 does have a manual focus, but you have to manually flip the switch from A to M first (since it doesn't have instant override) and focus using the very end of the lens (where the "teeth" are).  Having said that, it's a very hard and fast adjustment, as just a tiny touch does a lot with this lens.   It doesn't have a scale on the lens, so no way to get it close to infinity and then eyeball from there.  Just lock in with a good eye and nudge until you hit the focus you want.The 55-200 is almost the same as well, although not right on the end like the 18-55.  Be careful not to grab 'em when in auto focus mode, though, as I believe both physically turn even with AF.</blockquote>
