freedda Posted January 8, 2016 Share #1 Posted January 8, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I just bought a V-Lux camera and I'm learning how to use it. I set it to AF-MF, so the zoom ring should become a manual focus after I've autofocused. Looking at the PDF manual, I think I've set this up right, but when I turn the ring, it does not seem to change the focus at all. Also, there is no 'focus highlighting' or focus assist, or a scale which shows me the general focus distance (close to far)--even though I think I've turned on these features as well. Can anyone give me some pointers as to how I can achieve what I want? I did by this 'open box' from B&H, which is like-new with warranty, but there could still be something not right. All the best, David. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

freedda Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share #2 Posted January 9, 2016 I figured it out. The lens ring has to be set to focus and then it works. I mistakenly thought that even when the ring was set to zoom, if I had pushed the shutter half way it would then switch me into 'focus' mode, but no.
