delayed focus.
The lens' focusing ring is electronic.

With a camera capable of electronic full-time
O O
manual focus, manual focusing is always
possible whenever camera operations are
possible. However, this requires a change in
camera settings.
When AF operation is set to [ONE SHOT],
O O
manual focus is possible after autofocusing
has been completed by continuing to press the
shutter button halfway. However, this requires a
change in camera settings.
When the AF button assignment is changed from
O O
the "shutter button" (using the camera's Custom
Function), manual focus is always possible
regardless if the shutter button is pressed
halfway any time the lens is not autofocusing.
Please refer to the camera's instructions for details.
