Focusing
Focus Lock
When you want to compose a scene with the main subject positioned out of the zone
covered by the five focusing points, follow the procedure below to first lock the focus on
the subject before composing the scene and capturing the image.
The focus lock function is available only in One-shot AF mode. Refer to “Selecting
the AF Mode” on page 9-2.
The exposure settings are determined when the subject is focused. If the subject
brightness changes after you lock the focus, the subject may not be properly
exposed.
1 Cover the subject with the
selected focusing point and
press the Shutter button halfway
to focus the subject.
2 Keeping the shutter pressed
halfway, recompose the picture
as desired.
3 Press the Shutter button
completely to capture the image.
(page 6-6)
This custom function lets you lock
the exposure with the Shutter button
instead of the AE Lock button (U).
Pressing the AE Lock button
activates autofocusing.
