Shooting Hard-to-Focus Subjects
(Focus Lock)
Available Shooting Modes p. 178
1
Aim the camera so that an object at the same
focal distance as the main subject is centered
in the AF frame.
2
Press the shutter button halfway to lock the
focus.
3
Keep the shutter button pressed halfway while
you recompose the image and press the
shutter button all the way to shoot the image.
z Since AF frames do not display in mode, aim the camera
so that the focus is on the target subject.
z When shooting with the focus lock, setting [AF Frame] to
[Center] (p. 76) makes shooting easier since the camera
focuses using the center AF frame only.
z When shooting the subjects through glass, try to shoot as
close to the glass as possible to reduce the chances of light
reflecting back off the glass.
