Perhaps Olympus have a Patent. I don't know.

I don't think it really matters, it's not like most users will want to set it to a half metre range.
Heck, for myself, approximately 10 metres to infinity would make me happy. Just so long as it didn't always assume the target had suddenly moved to the far end of the focus range!
I still think off/close/medium/far would be very much welcomed by many users.
I'd almost be happy if they rewrote the software so that when focus is lost, it re-tries in the direction of the nearest end stop not the furthest as it seem to do.
Anyway, thanks for your efforts Steve.
