Using DMF Focus Mode
When you’re using native Sony E-Mount lenses, Sony a7-series cameras also offer the DMF focus mode, which is ideal for fine-tuning focus. In DMF focus mode, the camera autofocuses as normal, once it does, if you turn the focus ring slightly, the camera will digitally “zoom in” to the focus point you have selected, giving you a quick way to double-check or correct focus. To turn it on, select Menu > Camera Settings > Focus Mode > DMF.
