MANUAL FOCUS
To focus manually, set the focus mode selector to M. (If the
lens has an A-M switch, set it to M. If you are using an AF-S/
AF-I Nikkor lens, set the focus mode ring to M or M/A.)
There are two ways of assuring precise manual focus: with the
Electronic Rangefinder or with the viewfinder’s clear matte field.
Manual focus with Electronic Rangefinder
The Electronic Rangefinder enables you to see focus status
with the viewfinder indications while you are rotating the lens
focusing ring. It works with most Nikon lenses (including AF
Nikkor when operated manually) which have a maximum
aperture of f/5.6 or faster. (For a complete list of usable lenses,
see LENS COMPATIBILITY CHART on p. 112).

For special focusing situations shown on page 38, y blinks to indicate that
the Electronic Rangefinder does not correctly work. Focus with clear matte field
(p. 42).

Keeping shutter release button lightly pressed, rotate lens
focusing ring in direction indicated by focus-to-left arrow
