focus magnification in live view

[charlieg54]

When shooting with a non native (Rokinon) manual focus lens, is it possible to have a magnified live view to focus with. I see that I can magnify an image in review but cannot figure out how to do it in live view.

with manual focus lenses just press on the focus assist button 

 

with automatic focus lenses if focus check is enabled as soon as you focus in manual (with the M on the body) this feature is automatic.

 

all these features are not especially hidden and all described in the manual. I am not reproaching but really the manual is something that you should read and practice while reading at least once this is an issue similar to the one you had with the split image square showing all of a sudden and really it belongs to the same category.

Thank you, I have misplaced the manual, guess I need to order a replacement.

you can download it on PDF and scroll id down on your screen.

 

The advantage of the PDF is that it is searchable.
