Feature request: IGNORE AF setting
Created originally on Bitbucket by Anonymous
It would be nice to have an AF override like:
AF Override: ON/OFF/DEFAULT
Where: ON: AF is on regardless of the AF switch on the lenses. OFF: AF is OFF regardless of the switch on the lenses. Default: Normal behaviour (as per switch setting)
Why? Because the AF switch on the lenses stops the lenses from rotating if the lenses are vertical.
Imagine using the camera as a microscope with inverted lens macro. With the AF switch to OFF the lenses rotate to "infinite" focus. With the AF switch to ON the lenses are steady (bt the camera tries to autofocus).
It would be great to have the AF to OFF and the switch to ON.
