FOCUSING
Various tools are available for focusing, depending on whether you
are using the camera's internal optical viewfinder
27
or Live View
mode (see p. 165).
With the optical rangefinder
Due to its large effective metering basis, the rangefinder on this
camera is very precise. The benefits of this are particularly notice-
able when using wide-angle lenses with their relatively deep depth
of field. The rangefinder metering field is visible as a bright, sharply
defined rectangle in the center of the viewfinder. The focus can be
set using either the superimposed image or split image method:
Superimposed image method (double image)
In a portrait, for example, aim the metering field at the eye and turn
the distance setting ring on the lens until the contours in the me-
tering field coincide. Then compose the picture.
out of focus
in focus
Split image method
When taking photographs of architecture, for example, aim the
metering field at a vertical edge or another clearly defined vertical
line and turn the distance setting ring on the lens until the con-
tours of that edge or line can be seen at the limits of the metering
field with no misalignment. Then compose the picture.

Note:
Please observe the third note on p. 136 with respect to setting
accuracy.
