4.1 Ręczne ustawianie ostrości
This is a manual focus lens. To focus, rotate the focus ring located on the lens barrel until your subject appears sharp in the viewfinder or on your camera's display. For precise focusing, utilize your camera's rangefinder mechanism or focus peaking features if available.
4.2 Adjusting Aperture
The aperture ring is located near the front of the lens. Rotate this ring to select your desired f-stop. The lens offers a maximum aperture of f/1.4 for excellent low-light performance and shallow depth of field, and can be stopped down to f/16 for greater depth of field.
4.3 Depth of Field Scale
The lens features a depth of field scale, which indicates the approximate range of acceptable sharpness at various apertures and focus distances. This can be useful for zone focusing or pre-focusing for street photography.
