There are three VF frame settings.  These are paired so each setting has
two framelines included.  The actual VF doesn't change, just the framelines
set inside of it.

I have no difficulty focusing to 135mm, though some seem to experience
problems with what is admittedly a small frame for that focal length.

The framelines come up automatically when a lens is mounted.  There is a
manual switch allowing other framelines to be brought up to check alternate
coverages;  this is spring-loaded so that releasing the switch brings back
the appropriate VF frame for the mounted lens.
