Yes I think so. From memory, find 'focus settings' in the menu (first page I think), then select that menu option and you will have a further option of 'x2' and 'x4' or something like that. If you select one of them (say 'x4'), then when you now turn the manual focus ring on the lens, the live view screen will automatically zoom in x4...
I think

When using manual lenses with an adapter you get a magnified view by pressing the OK button, just turning the focus ring won't work in this situation as the lens is not 'talking' to the camera.

Im using it with an adapter and focusing manually is a bit of an issue when you cant zoom in.
