Manual

Focus is at center position of the camera's field of view. When you rotate the Manual focus ring, a magnified portion of the screen, a bar to show the focus range, and a gauge to show the sharpness of focus are displayed. The higher in the plus direction, the better the detected focus. The close-up distance for Wide angle/Telephoto is 10 in. (25 cm) to infinity.
