There needs to be a lock between these two settings. 4) VERY hard to focus while wearing glasses and using longer lenses like the 135 tele. 5) You will shoot more pictures with it than without it. It is a pleasure and highly recommended...for those who measure their tools by the results. I hope all are enjoying the new season and , with it, new light.
