Question about new camera's manual focus option?

I have a canon powershot sx160 is. I go to video mode and put it in manual focus option because i want to adjust the focus while i am recording, but i cant seem to figure out how to. I am able to set it to focus on either nearer or farther objects, but cant do it while I'm recording. Is it possible and if so how please? Thanks in advanced.

    Normally not. In video most small cameras go to auto focus, in fact auto everything, with video.
