but I would like you to understand
Thank you！
Today we will introduce the focus mode switch of ASAHI Optical Industries’ PENTAX brand film autofocus SLR camera introduced in 1987.
PENTAX SFX (Reference product)
The focus mode switch is located on the front of the camera next to the lens mount.
In the focus mode, you can choose between manual and auto.
Manual focus is set by holding down the top of the slide switch and sliding it upward.
There are two types of auto focus.
In “SINGLE” mode, the shutter is released when the subject is in focus.
SERVO” allows the shutter to focus on the subject.
Slide the switch to set the desired setting.
This time, we introduced a focus mode switch for ASAHI Optical Industries’ PENTAX brand film autofocus SLR cameras introduced in 1987.
This is a mode switch from the era when SLR cameras started to have an autofocus function.
It is a small switch, but it has a big role in the focus mode section!
Please look forward to the next issue, where we will continue to introduce the various designs and functions of film cameras!
