There is a work-around!

With the "focus clutch" lenses (14/2.8, 16/1.4, 23/1.4), you can still visualize the electronic DOF scale in the EVF if you:

- enable the AF+MF function (i.e., AF with manual override),

- set the camera to AF-S

- pull back the focus ring to the "manual focus" position

- AF normally using the shutter button half-press and THEN tweak focus by turning the focus ring.

Hope this helps!
