If desired, autofocus can be over-ridden by rotating the
lens focus ring while the shutter-release button is pressed
halfway (or, if the camera is equipped with an AF-ON
button, while the AF-ON button is pressed). To refocus
using autofocus, press the shutter-release button halfway
or press the AF-ON button again.
■ Depth of Field
The depth-of-field indicators on the lens show the
approximate depth of field (see page 138 for more
information). If the camera offers depth-of-field preview (stop
down), depth of field can also be previewed in the viewfinder.

Note that because this lens uses the Nikon Internal Focusing
(IF) System, focal length decreases as the focus distance
shortens.
