3. Ovládání objektivu
3.1 Přepínač režimů ostření (AF/MF)
- AF (automatické ostření): For automatic focusing. The Ring USM provides fast and quiet autofocus.
- MF (Manuální ostření): For manual focusing. This lens supports full-time manual focus, allowing you to adjust focus manually even when in AF mode without damaging the mechanism.
3.2 Focus Limiter Switch
This switch allows you to limit the focus range, which can speed up autofocus performance when your subject is within a known distance range.
- PLNÝ: Allows focusing across the entire range (closest focusing distance to infinity).
- 2.5m - ∞: Limits focusing to subjects 2.5 meters (8.2 feet) or further away.
3.3 Image Stabilizer (IS) Switch
- NA: Activates the Image Stabilizer function, reducing blur caused by camera shake.
- OFF: Deactivates the Image Stabilizer. It is recommended to turn IS off when using a tripod for extended periods or when shooting at very fast shutter speeds.
3.4 Image Stabilizer Mode Switch
This lens offers two Image Stabilizer modes:
- REŽIM 1: Corrects camera shake in all directions (vertical and horizontal). Ideal for stationary subjects.
- REŽIM 2: Corrects camera shake only in the vertical direction. Ideal for panning shots where you follow a moving subject horizontally.
