Advanced rangefinder License features***

 

  • visualization of up to 3 rangefinder targets

  • advanced AF Ramp modes

AF Ramp Modes:

  • OFF: When the AF ramp mode is set to Off, autofocus will shift to the next target using the motor’s maximum speed. As soon as a user button assigned to Target A, B, C or M is being pressed, the focus will shift without a ramp effect. 
  • Time Mode: When the AF ramp mode is assigned to Time mode, a dedicated time can be assigned to shift focus from one target to the other. The motor speed will adapt within the set time automatically to allow a smooth focus transition. 
  • Speed Mode: When the AF ramp mode is assigned to Speed mode, a dedicated speed can be assigned to shift focus from one target to the other at a constant lens feed rate. The motor speed will adapt automatically to allow for a constant focus pull in relation to the lens scale. **
  • Manual Mode: unique feature allows any controller (knob, slider or thumbwheel) to be assigned as "AF ramp". This allows manual time and speed ramping between the knob position and different AF targets**

 

For a full explanation of the AF Ramp modes and multiple distance values, please refer to the cPRO user manual 5.0, page 90-94.
