An another code block. how you can do manual focus with iPhone.

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet var cameraView: CameraView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    }

    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
        // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
    }

    @IBAction func sliderChanged(sender: UISlider) {
        cameraView.setFocusWithLensPosition(sender.value)
    }
}


import UIKit
import AVFoundation

class CameraView: UIView {

    // AVFoundation properties
    let captureSession = AVCaptureSession()
    var captureDevice: AVCaptureDevice!
    var captureDeviceFormat: AVCaptureDeviceFormat?
    let stillImageOutput = AVCaptureStillImageOutput()
    var cameraLayer: AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer?

    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
        initCamera()
    }

    func initCamera() {
        captureSession.beginConfiguration()


        stillImageOutput.outputSettings = [AVVideoCodecKey: AVVideoCodecJPEG]

        // get the back camera
        if let device = cameraDeviceForPosition(AVCaptureDevicePosition.Back) {

            captureDevice = device
            captureDeviceFormat = device.activeFormat

            let error: NSErrorPointer = nil

            do {
                try captureDevice!.lockForConfiguration()
            } catch let error1 as NSError {
                error.memory = error1
            }
            captureDevice!.focusMode = AVCaptureFocusMode.Locked
            captureDevice!.unlockForConfiguration()

            var deviceInput: AVCaptureDeviceInput!
            do {
                deviceInput = try AVCaptureDeviceInput(device: captureDevice)
            } catch let error1 as NSError {
                error.memory = error1
                deviceInput = nil
            }
            if(error == nil) {
                captureSession.addInput(deviceInput)
            }

            captureSession.addOutput(stillImageOutput)

            // use the high resolution photo preset
            captureSession.sessionPreset = AVCaptureSessionPresetPhoto


            // setup camera preview
            cameraLayer = AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer(session: captureSession)


            if let player = cameraLayer {
                player.videoGravity = AVLayerVideoGravityResizeAspectFill
                self.layer.addSublayer(player)
                player.frame = self.layer.bounds
                player.connection.videoOrientation = AVCaptureVideoOrientation.LandscapeRight
            }

            // commit and start capturing
            captureSession.commitConfiguration()
            captureSession.startRunning()
        }

        captureSession.commitConfiguration()
    }

    func setFocusWithLensPosition(pos: CFloat) {
        let error: NSErrorPointer = nil
        do {
            try captureDevice!.lockForConfiguration()
        } catch let error1 as NSError {
            error.memory = error1
        }
        captureDevice!.setFocusModeLockedWithLensPosition(pos, completionHandler: nil)
        captureDevice!.unlockForConfiguration()
    }

    // return the camera device for a position
    func cameraDeviceForPosition(position:AVCaptureDevicePosition) -> AVCaptureDevice?
    {
        for device:AnyObject in AVCaptureDevice.devices() {
            if (device.position == position) {
                return device as? AVCaptureDevice;
            }
        }

        return nil
    }
