[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 537147, member: 16749"] Assuming you're using the stock lens, you could just set this switch to “M”, but the lens would be easily jostled out of focus, so I don't really recommend that. [indent][ATTACH=CONFIG]200561._xfImport[/ATTACH][/indent] Better, once you have the focus set as you want it, leave that switch in “A”, and then on your camera… [list][*]Push this button…[indent][ATTACH=CONFIG]200562._xfImport[/ATTACH][/indent] [*]Go to this menu…[indent][ATTACH=CONFIG]200563._xfImport[/ATTACH][/indent] [*]And select “MF”[indent][ATTACH=CONFIG]200564._xfImport[/ATTACH][/indent][/list] That will set the camera to manual-focus mode. That will prevent the camera from trying to autofocus, and with the switch on the lens set to “A”, the focus will be locked where you set it. [/QUOTE]
