Manual focus is a camera setting where you have to focus on things you’re trying to photograph manually.  This means that objects will not be automatically focused every time you point your camera at it, like they are with auto focus. Although this may be inconvenient at some times, it a good setting to use if you are trying to capture still things where can can afford to spend some extra time trying to focus on it correctly. This setting allows you to be able to focus on different things in your location. As you can see from my contact sheets I firstly photographed fruit. With the manual focus, I was able to individually focus on different pieces of fruit by adjusting the lens. I was even able to focus on the background of my images, Meaning that the objects in front were completely out of focus. With this setting you are able to manipulate your audience’s focus when they look at an image.
