Using manual focus in video mode PowerShot SX210 IS

Solution

Using Manual Focus

You can use manual focus when auto focus is not possible by following the same step as in the normal picture taking mode.

1. Choose MF by pressing the button, and then press the buttons or use the control dial to choose MF and press the <FUNC./SET> button. The MF and the MF indicator will appear.

2. Using the bar that shows the distance display and AF point zoom as a guide, turn the <Control Dial> while looking at the display to adjust the focus.

NOTE:

You cannot change the AF frame setting or size while focusing manually. If you want to change the AF frame mode or size, cancel Manual focus mode first.

In order to focus accurately, try attaching the camera to a tripod.

When using the Digital Zoom, Digital Tele-converter, or when using a television as a display, you will be able to focus but the magnified area will not display.

If [MF-Point Zoom] is set to [Off] in the tab, the magnified display will not be available.

If [Safety MF] is set to [Off] in the tab, you will not be able to fine tune the focus even if you press the shutter button.
