POINT AF (AUTOFOCUS) The DiMAGE Scan Elite II's autofocus system uses the CCD sensor to focus the scanner. When the autofocus-at-scan option is selected in the preferences box, the autofocus system uses the centre of the image to determine the focus. This normally results in an excellent scan when the film plane is flat. However, if the film is warped or curled, the scanner can be focused using the point AF or manual focus functions. CAUTION For best results when using point AF or manual focus, select an area within the image with contrast or detail. The point AF and manual focus functions cannot focus on a smooth, flat image area such as a cloudless or overcast sky. 1 Click the point-AF button . · The mouse pointer will change to the point-AF icon. · Click the point-AF button again to cancel the function. 2 Click on the area of image to be used for focus. · Autofocus will begin.
