Refined Focus Limiter
for Faster Autofocus.


The advanced in-body focus limiter lets you set a defined focus range, reducing focus hunting for quicker, more accurate autofocus - especially in low light or when tracking fast-moving subjects. It also prevents unwanted background shifts, helping maintain precise focus on your subject. Ideal for macro, portraiture, wildlife photography, and videography, it brings sharper results and smoother shooting.

Pixel Shift Shooting Advancements.

Now integrated with focus shift or AE bracketing, it allows you to achieve extended depth-of-field or perfectly exposed photos with x4 resolution directly in-camera.

Streamlining your workflow - No extra gear, just high-quality, high-resolution images true to your vision.
