This allows you to use autofocus on a specific area of the image.
POINT AF
The Dimâge Scan Multi uses the CCD sensor for autofocus.
Autofocus uses the center of the image to determine focus. Normally, this results in an excellent scan because the
film plane is flat. However, if the film is warped or curled, or if Autofocus is turned off in the preferences, focus may
not be accurate and Point AF or Manual Focus should be used.
• Automatic autofocus can be turned on and off in the Preferences (p. 53).
1.Click on in the Prescan window.
• The pointer will change to the Point AF icon.
• Click on the Point AF button again to escape the
function.
2.Click on the area of the image to be in
sharp focus.
• Autofocus will begin, then a new prescan will
start.
• The prescanned image will appear in the
Prescan window when complete.
For best results when using
Point-AF and Manual Focus,
click on an area with contrast
or detail. Manual Focus and
Point-AF will not be able to
focus on an area with flat color
(such as a a gray sky or solid
black subject).
