Hi there, when I try to rotate the drive dial, it doesn’t allow me to rotate to S and Ad1. What’s the cause and how can I resolve this? -
This is getting a little confusing. There is a switch on the front of the camera labelled M-C-S which changes the focus mode between Manual, Continuous and Single shot focus mode. In C or S modes, the camera automatically focuses the lens — for lenses that can be auto-focused — while in M mode, you twist one of the lens rings to focus the lens, the camera takes the shot only for the focus you set the lens to use. After that, it is as @Greybeard is saying, aperture exposure and distance scale are not really related. -
M mode on the back of the camera controls focus - aperture priority is for exposure. Maybe I'm missing something - the distance scale isn't going to be affected by your exposure setting (aperture priority). If you change from manual to auto focus and you still want the distance to show you will need to go into the custom display settings in the screen setup menu and check the appropriate setting. As you have the camera why not try it? -
By M mode I mean the button at the front of the camera, not the back. (Don't know how it's called in English) I did the zone focus a few weeks ago, with succes. Now I want to try Aperture Priority. Iso on Auto, SS on Auto, and figure only out Aperture. But when I do Aperture Priority do I still see the (zone focus) distance scale on my menu while shooting) My English explaining is not the best, haha! Hope you understand it all. -
Either way should work - both methods allow you to set aperture. (I'm assuming when you say M mode you mean the exposure mode M and not the focus mode M). (I'm also assuming when you say zone focus you mean the technique of setting focus at a specific distance rather then using the AF Mode of Zone).
