Can I manually focus the camera?

The P Q10 is like most digital cameras, you change the focus by centering the view finder on an object and lightly tapping the shutter button. This will force the camera to refocus on that object. I don't believe there is a way to manually adjust focus like you adjust zoom. Practice with the light tapping on different objects in your field of view and it will become natural to shift your focus on anything in your field of view.

Yes, there is only the manual zoom function which is controlled by turning the dial on the lens itself.

Yes, there is a barrel on the 02 lens . The smaller adjusts focus and the larger is a zoom.

yes, just set the camera and lens to auto focus. Go to Dpreview.com for a complete review. Good luck and Happy Shooting!

Thank you for asking. Yes you can, but you will need to manually focus as there is no electronics in this adapter.

The LifeCam Studio camera has an option to deselect 'Auto Focus' and manually set focus on 'Properties' screen. It occasionally trips back in when there is a power cut but my system has been running for 12 months 24/7 on manual focus without any glitches. Very pleased.

yes you can- take auto focus off in settings and you can manually adjust to a point- the company I work for used it to make ID badge pictures though it is limited if you're trying to use it as a portable pocket digital camera.

Yes, it allows you to make your own adjustments manually, this includes shutter speed, iso and many other functions.

nope, nope, nope. You can use an autofocus lens on it....so long as you manually focus the lens.

Yes, but this camera just has auto focus. So, just select the thing or person that you want to focus on and just move or zoom the focus.

You can rotate the camera manually. The optics are sharp and for the $ its a nice camera!

The manual focusing is "by-wire". It's very natural, I found it easy to get used to and easy to use.

No! Only the Focus can be manually adjusted. The "Iris" and or Aperture leaves are electronically controlled only..

You have to take the camera out of Automatic mode. You can only use the lens in manual mode.

Neither the camera nor the lens have build-in autofocus. So you can use it but you will have to focus manually

Yes, the camera needs to focus, especially in low light settings. That is why you need to press the Shutter Button down half way, so the camera can figure out all the settings to take a good picture. After the camera meters your subject, then press the Shutter Button all the down and the camera takes the picture instantly. You probably should download the complete manual from Panasonic's web site. Hope this helps.

It's in the manual but the camera has a setting to override the dof focus etc. In that respect it's not really intuitive.
